Glenfiddich Cask of Dreams

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 48.8%

Score: 91 Points

This malt was finished in 11 virgin oak casks that had been rolled through the streets of 11 U.S. cities for people to write their dreams and goals on. The nose is fresh oak, nutmeg, almonds, grapes, and a hint of coconut. The taste is thick, chewy and spicy with black pepper and licorice notes in good balance, along with hints of coconut and honey. The finish is long and lingering with subtle licorice and allspice notes.
