✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the legendary Glenfiddich distillery in Dufftown, Speyside, the 'Spirit of the Nation' 29-Year-Old is an extraordinary, highly limited single malt Scotch whisky. Crafted to honor the bravery of wounded servicemen participating in the South Pole Allied Challenge, this rare expression was married from exceptional casks distilled in the early 1980s. Utilizing the pristine waters of the Robbie Dhu spring and aged for nearly three decades in a combination of fine American oak and Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, it represents the pinnacle of Speyside craftsmanship. The result is a deeply complex spirit rich with notes of dark chocolate, stewed fruits, warm baking spices, and a whisper of toasted oak, reflecting both the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands and the distillery's pioneering heritage.
🍾 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.
