Mina kommentarer:
Jag är ingen fan av Glenfiddich, men deras 15 åring är bra. När man sen hittar den till det här priset så är det bara att slå till.

Tasting notes från Malt Maniacs: Officiella tasting notes:

Glenfiddich 15yo 'Solera Reserve' (40%, OB)
Nose: Malty, grainy & spicy. That's about all there is to tell. A decent malt that lacks some personality.
Taste: Soft and smooth. Once again there isn't much more to tell. Decidedly average, but good whisky.
Score: 75 points - MOTR. The most remarkable thing I can mention is that it's so unremarkable...

The Glenfiddich Solera system is unique amongst Scotch whisky distillers. Fifteen-year-old Glenfiddich from three types of casks – traditional American bourbon, Spanish sherry and new oak – is married in a large Solera vat, made of Oregon pine. The vat is always kept at least half full, ensuring a consistent quality of whisky is maintained whenever it is topped up. Then this beautifully balanced single malt is left to settle in a small Solera tun before bottling.

A full and fruity nose, with delicate honey and vanilla notes. The taste is elegantly smooth, with a deep flavour that reveals fruit, gentle spice and a touch of oak. The finish is long and satisfying.
