General description

It takes a while open up, but when it does... Greatfiddich!

Nose

Chocolate of the darker variety comes before over-ripe pear and green apple. There's an obvious increased influence of oak and so a deeper profile than the 12. There's an alcoholic edge that takes time to settle into sherry notes and some woodiness that maybe doesn't help the flavours, deading them for a moment. Then citrus at the back-end...

Palate

The palate is the points' scorer taking the promised flavours on the nose into overdrive. In all honesty, if the nose was a mirror of the palate the score would be good but not great, however, the palate flavours of smooth citrus and sugars and pear/green apple lead into darker fruit tastes like raisins and some spices that might be a pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon. A great Winter dram. Chocolate hits at the mid-point with a sweet cocoa spike and even a latte-like vibe from good coffee beans, but this is only as a shadow of the chocolate and fruit flavours. Pretty complex for a 15... Very good indeed.

Finish

Long to very long, with the oakiness coming through with vanilla and the sherry influence again. The apple/pear remains too. Great consistency, which appears characteristic of the Glenfiddich brand.

과일향이 많이 나는데 이게 배향인가?
첫 위스키라 몇점을 줘야할지 몰라 일단 70
달콤하다고들 하는데 다른 위스키에 비해 어느정돈지는 모르겠고
일단 위스키치곤 상당히 부드럽고 마시기에 부담이 없다
살짝 플랫한 느낌?

General description

All tastes are very smooth. Vanilla and a hint of honey and caramel on the nose. Start off exactly as on the nose. In the finish some pepper comes up. Not 'outspoken' enough for my taste; it's a nice whisky to start the evening with, but don't try to drink it after a whisky with an outspoken taste, because all of these tastes will be hard to find back again.

General description

In der Nase süßer Äpfel mit Honig und einer Spur Marzipan. Im Vergleich zum 12er runder und süßer und weniger frisch. Allerdings ähnlich mild und zurückhaltend.

Im Mund wiederum süßer aber leider ebenso wässrig wie der 12er.

Im Abgang leider immer noch keine Geschmacksexplosion aber immerhin fruchtig-Süße Noten nach Birne und Trauben und ein Hauch Eiche.

Note: 2-
