Nose: Buttery malt, light honey, apple, pear, a hint of vanilla.
Palate: The arrival is soft, sweet and slightly fruity. Malt emerges in the development with cereal notes and deeper toned fruit. The texture is light but creamy and very pleasant.
Finish: Short. Crisp, sweet and fruity.
A show of hands from everyone for whom this was their first whisky - yep, there's a lot of us.
It's a good everyday dram, enjoyable neat or with a dash of water, or over rocks, or with soda, or as a mixer, or ... however you want to use it. An affordable and always dependable middle-ground whisky. Very reasonably often suggested as a first malt for beginners, it's amazing that Glenfiddich can produce millions of bottles of this year after year and maintain such high quality. It will always find a place in my drinks cabinet.
