From the Hills of Scotland to the Bluegrass of Kentucky
In a recent podcast with Willam Grant and Sons, Tim Pitts shared the title slogan with me for Glenfiddich 14. At that moment in one of our rare non sipping podcast I knew I had to find that bottle! Let me share my thoughts!
Just the facts:
Proof: 86
Age: 14 Years Old
Mash bill: 100% Malted Barely
Style: 100 % Ex-Bourbon Cask
Jake’s tasting notes: Glenfiddich 14
Nose: cinnamon, vanilla, a hint of cherry and pepper
Palate: The first sip is full of malty, bready goodness. As the pour sits on your palate the more delicate vanilla, oak, spicy notes come through. In this two oz pour the flavors are consistent which makes this a very easy drinker!
Finish: medium
Closing Thoughts:
If you are looking to try single malt scotch whiskey as a bourbon drinker, Glenfiddich 14 might be the perfect place to start!
