✨ wine.spec_sheet
Glenfiddich, founded by William Grant in 1887 in the heart of Speyside, Scotland, represents the pinnacle of family-run distilling heritage. The 'Cumulative Time' 40-Year-Old is a masterpiece from the 'Re-imagination of Time' collection, celebrating the slow, unstoppable march of years. This expression utilizes a pioneering 'remnant vatting' process, where master distillers select exceptional casks of at least 40 years of age and marry them with remnants of the previous 40-year-old batch. This creates a continuous liquid thread that links generations of craftsmanship. Matured in the cool, damp warehouses of Dufftown, the spirit absorbs the essence of the Speyside climate, developing an unparalleled complexity of rich dried fruits, dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and a whisper of peat smoke, all softened by decades of interaction with fine oak.
