Installment #2 of Glenfiddich's Experimental Line. I found the Fire & Cane to be decent, but I wasn't sure what to expect from this when I bought it. At any rate, I like the packaging. Nose: Fruit bomb. Plum and raisin. Apple, pear, orange, apricot. Cereals, malt, toffee, honey, vanilla. Oak and caramel. Very floral. A bit of cola. While it may not deviate from the standard Speyside profile, it is one of the more vibrant than many of its regional counterparts. Palate: Big pear and apricot. Still a bit of plum, now with dark grape. Really nice caramelized apple note. Toffee, honey, vanilla, shortbread cookie, and marshmallow. Orange zest and milk chocolate. Finish: With an unusually high ABV for a Glenfiddich (47%), this offers a medium finish. It's fruity and floral, into cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and oak spice. It's the first time the extra 4-7% ABV becomes palpable. Dangerously drinkable, typical Speyside, nothing truly noteworthy. Those are the first things that come to mind. It's very good Scotch. It takes the average Speyside profile and amplifies it just a bit at every turn. I really like the product, whether or not the marketing is accurate. It's going to have to be a bit more eventful to break the 4-star plane at $68, but I'd be lying if I said this wasn't real nice stuff. It's edition #2, and they're up to edition #4, so availability is limited. If you're looking for a quintessential background whisky with enough character to surprise you on occasion, this is worth a grab. 4 stars and my second favorite from Glenfiddich at the moment, after the 14 year. Regardless, this is very well put to together.
