✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Glenfiddich Project XX is the second release in the distillery's pioneering Experimental Series, born from a clandestine collaboration. Malt Master Brian Kinsman invited twenty whisky experts from sixteen countries to explore the historic Conval warehouses in Speyside. Each expert was tasked with selecting a single cask that spoke to their palate—ranging from sweet port pipes and rich sherry casks to robust virgin oak. Kinsman then masterfully married these twenty distinct liquid profiles into a singular, complex expression. The result is a tribute to collective expertise, showcasing a deep golden hue with aromas of classic Speyside pear, toasted oak, creamy vanilla, and a hint of spice. This innovative spirit bridges traditional craftsmanship with modern experimentation, capturing the adventurous spirit of the William Grant & Sons legacy.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Glenfiddich Distillery blev grundlagt i 1886 af William Grant og opført ved håndkraft med hjælp fra hans familie. Destilleriet ligger i hjertet af Dufftown i Skotlands berømte Speyside-region og er den dag i dag stadig uafhængigt ejet af William Grant & Sons. I 1963 skrev destilleriet historie ved at bane vejen for single malt whisky på det internationale marked, der hidtil havde været domineret af traditionelle blends. Glenfiddich fremstiller sin whisky på det krystalklare kildevand fra de nærliggende Robbie Dhu-kilder, destillerer på karakteristiske svanehalsformede kobberkedler og råder over eget bødkeri for at have fuld kontrol over modningen på førsteklasses amerikanske og europæiske egetræsfade. Destilleriet er verdenskendt for sin ikoniske trekantede flaske og skaber en anmelderrost portefølje af single malts, der er kendetegnet ved destilleriets signaturnoter af frugthave, sprøde grønne pærer, fine florale nuancer samt en bemærkelsesværdig dybde i de sjældne årgangsaftapninger.
