Glenfiddich 15 Year Solera Reserve
Single Malt
Glenfiddich // Speyside, Scotland
The Solera Reserve expression from Glenfiddich is quite unique. First off, it is aged in three different types of vessels: ex bourbon, ex-sherry, and new virgin American oak.
After 15 years, the whisky is then vatted into a Solera tun, an Oregon pine container which always keeps at least 50% of previous marriages in it. Note: Glenfiddich updated the packaging for this product and named it Glenfiddich Our Solera Fifteen.

Tasting Notes
"The aroma is definitely in the fruity camp with chewy figs, raisins, and oranges. The taste is soft and full of honey and vanilla, but there are other tastes there as well such as leather and a scant amount of smoke. "
