✨ Technical Specifications
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.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1886 by William Grant and constructed by hand with the help of his family, Glenfiddich Distillery is situated in the heart of Dufftown in Scotland's renowned Speyside region. Still independently owned by William Grant & Sons, the distillery made history in 1963 by pioneering the international single malt Scotch whisky category beyond traditional blended scotch. Glenfiddich crafts its spirits using the pristine waters of the nearby Robbie Dhu springs, distilling through distinctive copper pot stills and maintaining its own on-site cooperage to oversee maturation in premium American and European oak casks. Renowned worldwide for its iconic triangular bottle, the distillery produces an acclaimed spectrum of single malts characterized by signature orchard-fruit aromas, crisp green pear, delicate floral notes, and remarkable depth in its rare vintage releases.
