This is the expression that began the Glenfiddich collection and remains its flagship. It is matured in a combination of Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks before being brought together in oak marrying tuns, where the individual cask influences are allowed to mellow and integrate.
The combination gives it its characteristic bright and fresh house style, balancing sweet fruit and pear with butterscotch, cream, malt and subtle oak. The final marrying stage helps create the smooth, mellow character that makes this one of the most recognisable expressions from the distillery.
