Review #535 |
This was
originally for travel retail. This is the second release in the series. It is
very sweet at first in the smell. Fresh white fruits, like apples and pears,
but also hints of more exotic fruits like pineapple. Some sugary, biscuit and
vanilla sweetness in the end.
Considering
it is watered down to 40 %, it is actually very rich in flavours in the taste! Some
oak and vanilla sweetness. Wood spices and honey. The finish is full of burned
caramel at first. Then some sweet raisins and more vanilla.
A very fine
dram from Glenfiddich! The age and the quality of the ex-Bourbon casks have
made sure this is still very flavourful, even though the ABV is low. I can only
dream about how great this would have been at a higher strength! I will give
this 87/100 (22/21/22/22).
