✨ wine.spec_sheet
Hailing from the valley of the deer ('Glenfiddich' in Gaelic), this incredibly rare 36-year-old single malt represents the pinnacle of Speyside craftsmanship. Distilled in 1978 and matured in a single oak cask (No. 28121) until its bottling in 2015, it embodies the legacy of William Grant, who founded the distillery in 1886 with his family's bare hands. Glenfiddich remains one of the few single malt distilleries to remain entirely family-owned, preserving traditional methods such as using uniquely shaped copper pot stills and sourcing pristine water from the Robbie Dhu spring. This exceptionally long-aged expression showcases a complex tapestry of rich oak, dried orchard fruits, warm baking spices, and a delicate honeyed sweetness, a testament to nearly four decades of silent maturation in the cool Speyside climate.
