Mellow, Sweet Fruity
2022-04-11
The Glenfiddich 12 year is perhaps the best known classic and Scotch for beginners. However, there are also alternatives in this price range.

Smell

Sweetly, the Scotch reminds us of bright fruits, such as ripe pears and apples. A hint of honey is perceptible in the background. Like the bottle - an elegantly balanced composition.

Taste

Not too complex and rather straightforward, we taste mild and balanced fresh fruits. A light honey aroma also crystallises.

Finish

Very briefly, a little oak and a slight bitterness remain.

Thoughts

Suitable for beginners in any case: everyone has probably had Glenfiddich 12 Years in their glass at least once. With its mild and soft character, it is very accessible. As a classic, it can also be offered to guests who have not yet dealt intensively with single malts.

Rating: 68/100 - Good (Marcel: 66 | Sascha: 70)

Value for Money: 5/5 - Very Good
