Description
Project XX ("twenty") is the result of one of the most ambitious malt experiments undertaken by Glenfiddich. Bringing together 20 whisky experts from 16 countries around the world, Project XX is a combination of each expert's selected cask from the Glenfiddich warehouse, carefully married together in a small batch vatting by Malt Master, Brian Kinsman.
Deep gold in colour, this Speyside Single Malt has the classic Glenfiddich fruitiness on the nose with hints of apple blossom and ripe pear, balanced with oak, creamy vanilla and subtle spice. The palate is refined and balanced with candy floss sweetness complemented by toasted almonds, cinnamon and a rich vanilla oakiness. The finish is long lasting with sweet oak notes lingering.
