Glenfiddich Grand Cru 23 Year

God fin rund ettersmak 😊

Got a sample from a friend, can benefit from a higher abv like in the 43-46 range Nose: Vanilla, Marshmallows, Peaches, Pears, Apricots, Sultanas, White Chocolate, White Grapes, Pineapples, Kiwis Palate: Pears, Honey, Vanilla, Bananas, Coconuts, White Chocolate, Zested Lemon Peels, Lychees Finish: Orange Peels, Lychee, Bananas, Pineapples, Vanilla, Coconuts, Pears, Green Apples, Peaches, Cherries

Soft nose with light hints of malt, lemon, grass and confectioner’s sugar. Starts gentle in the mouth and then swells mid-palate into lychees and other fruits. Long peppery finish with a hint of cream. I didn’t find anything special here - I’m not sure what the wine casks bring to the table - but it’s pleasant enough, especially when your local bar is selling pours at cost for members of its whisky club (cc @rmeister23)
