Glenfiddich 18 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL | Scotland | Aged 18 Years, Small Batch, Oak & Sherry Cask Matured

Process & Profile

Glenfiddich 18 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky is crafted in small batches at the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland. Distilled from 100% malted barley and matured for at least 18 years, it undergoes a dual-cask aging process in a combination of Oloroso sherry and ex-bourbon oak barrels. These casks are then married in small batches to achieve consistent depth and complexity. The result is a refined Speyside malt with balanced sweetness, oak richness, and layers of dried fruit and spice that exemplify Glenfiddich’s renowned house style.
