Nose

"Quality Street" dark chocolate sweet with soft lemon inside with kumquats and nuts.

Palate

Delicate malt notes followed by a prickly spice and then a menthol backwash revealing great age.

Finish

Simple and clean. Vanilla at first and then bourbon-style oak notes.

Comment

Rarely does Glenfiddich pass 21 years unscathed by time, but this has done much better than most.
