Glenfiddich Gran Reserva Rum Cash Finish 21 Year Single Malt Scotch Whiskey 40%-ABV 750ml bottles.
About Glenfiddich:
Glenfiddich is the world's best-selling and most-awarded single malt Scotch whisky distillery. Located in Dufftown, Speyside, it remains one of the few major distilleries to be entirely family-owned and operated by the descendants of its founder, William Grant.
History and Heritage
- Founding (1886-1887): William Grant built the distillery by hand with the help of his seven sons and two daughters. The first drop of spirit flowed from the copper stills on Christmas Day, 1887.
- Meaning of Name: "Glenfiddich" is Scots Gaelic for "Valley of the Deer," which is represented by the brand's iconic stag logo.
- Industry Pioneer: In 1963, Glenfiddich became the first distillery to actively market and export single malt Scotch internationally, creating the global category for single malts as we know it today.
- Visitor Center: In 1969, it was the first Scottish distillery to open an official visitor center.
Production and Scale
- "The Giant": Known by this nickname due to its massive annual production capacity of approximately 21 million liters.
- Water Source: Every drop of Glenfiddich is made using water from the Robbie Dhu Spring, which flows near the distillery.
- Traditional Methods: Despite its size, Glenfiddich maintains an on-site cooperage to build and repair its own casks and employs its own team of coppersmiths to maintain its 43 uniquely shaped copper pot stills.
- Marrying Process: Glenfiddich is the only single malt that still "marries" its whiskies in large oak marrying tuns for up to nine months to ensure a consistent flavor profile.
Core Range and Notable Expressions
- Glenfiddich 12 Year Old: The signature "Our Original Twelve" is matured in American and European oak casks, known for a fresh, fruity profile with notes of pear and honey.
- Glenfiddich 14 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve: Finished in charred new American oak barrels, it bridges the gap between Scotch and bourbon with flavors of toffee and vanilla.
- Glenfiddich 15 Year Old Solera Reserve: Created using an innovative Solera Vat (inspired by sherry production) that is never fully emptied, resulting in a rich, spicy, and complex character.
- Glenfiddich 18 Year Old: A more refined expression married in small batches, offering deeper notes of dried fruit and baked apple.
- Experimental Series: Includes unique releases like the IPA Cask Finish (finished in craft beer casks) and Winter Storm (finished in French oak ice wine casks).
- Rare Releases: The Snow Phoenix was a limited 2010 release created from casks rescued after a warehouse roof collapsed due to heavy snow.
