Crafted in the heart of Speyside, Scotland, by the historic Glenfiddich Distillery—founded by William Grant in 1886—the 'Age of Discovery' Bourbon Cask Reserve is a majestic 19-year-old single malt. This expression pays homage to the intrepid maritime adventurers of the 15th century who charted new trade routes. Unlike typical finishes, this whisky is matured entirely in American oak casks that previously held bourbon, allowing the spirit to absorb deep, warm notes of vanilla, chewy toffee, and sweet spices. The pure Robbie Dhu spring water, a signature of Glenfiddich, combined with the distillery's uniquely shaped copper pot stills, ensures a spirit of remarkable smoothness and complexity, rich with Speyside's classic orchard fruit character.
