Glenfiddich Bourbon Barrel Reserve. Image courtesy William Grant & Sons. This 14-year-old Glenfiddich is available primarily in North America, and the nose has a honey sweetness with vanilla, muted spices, and a hint of oak. The taste is peppery with allspice and a hint of cinnamon balanced by dark chocolate, honey, and a hint of vanilla. The finish is long and creamy as the spices fade, leaving behind the sweeter honey, vanilla, and dark chocolate notes. (March, 2019)
