Glenfiddich Age of Discovery Bourbon Cask. Image courtesy William Grant & Sons. This 19-year-old Glenfiddich has a malty nose with dried apples and peaches, hints of banana, coconut, vanilla, and a touch of honey. The taste is light and aromatic at first with good honey and vanilla notes. Allspice and a hint of clove come out, but don’t overpower the sweetness or the gentle touch of banana in the background. The finish is light, mild, and lingering with touches of banana and honey. Very nice! (June, 2014)
