Glenfiddich 15 Year Old Solera Vat. Glenfiddich 15 Year Old expression is a truly special single malt that exemplifies the family’s tradition of innovation.
Its warm, spicy flavours are created using a technique pioneered by Glenfiddich’s fourth Malt Master, David Stewart, and continued to this day.
Aged in European, American, and New American oak to carefully release the virgin cask flavours, the whisky is then mellowed in Glenfiddich’s unique Solera vat before being married in Portuguese oak tuns.
Bursting with flavour, the first 15 Year Old to enter the top ten best selling single malts in the world is a personal favourite of many of the employees at the Distillery, and once you’ve tried it, it’s easy to see why. ABV 40%, 70CL. RRP £38.00
