How to enjoy it
- Neat
- On the rocks
- With water
Fuller than the 12, it rewards slow sipping neat. A splash of water opens up the honey; over ice the spice still comes through nicely.
Food pairing
Roast pork, duck or cheese with dried fruit. After dinner, chocolate or nut cake.
Background & production
Made at the Glenfiddich distillery in Dufftown, Speyside.
Whiskies matured in bourbon, new oak and sherry casks are married in a large oak Solera Vat, inspired by the bodegas of Spain and Portugal, before bottling.
The 15 Year Old is bottled at 40% ABV.
