The Glenfiddich 1977 Vintage Reserve is a 31-year-old single malt Scotch whisky, distilled in 1977 and meticulously bottled in 2008. Hailing from the renowned Speyside region, this exceptional whisky is a shining testament to the Glenfiddich brand's commitment to excellence. This unique offering has been aged in a pristine first-fill sherry butt, cask #4414, and is presented at a robust cask strength of 54.1% ABV. With only 482 bottles ever produced, it stands as a rare and distinguished release. The aroma is rich and complex, tantalizing the senses with deep sherry notes of raisins, dates, and sultanas, intertwined with a beautiful oaky sweetness. On the palate, it reveals an exquisite balance of rich oak and sweet, fruity spice. The initial intense flavors of tannin and mouth-coating wood gradually give way to a subtle vanilla sweetness and a gentle fruity character, showcasing notes of baked apple, rhubarb, and ripe pears. The flavors continue to evolve, seamlessly transitioning from oak to sweet, to fruity, to spicy, and back again, offering an ever-changing tasting experience. A splash of water enhances its vibrant, spicy character, unveiling hints of vanilla, butterscotch, and polished leather. Each cask of Glenfiddich Vintage Reserve is a unique entity, reflecting the distinct characteristics of the wood it has matured in and the time spent in the distillery's storied warehouses. This rare single malt was specially selected by the Glenfiddich Malt Master from the distillery's limited stocks of Vintage Reserve, ensuring an unparalleled whisky experience.
