Glenfiddich Experimental Series #4 Fire & Cane

General description

süß-sauer mit einer ordentlichen Portion Rauch (zwischen Ardmore und Islay). Dahinter leichte Fruchtnoten.

Im Mund sehr süß und auch die Fruchtnoten werden präsenter. Dazu bildet sich eine schöne Vanillenote aus.

Im Abgang kommt erst ein Schwall heller Früchte, dann mit und mit eine leichte Eichennote, die sich in Schokolade äußert. Dahinter eine ganz leicht aschige Note.

Schöner Speyside Raucher, der etwas mehr Facetten in die Auswahl der rauchigen Schotten bringt. Der Rauch unterscheidet sich etwas vom klaren, sauberen Rauch der Highlander und dem maritimen, heftigen Rauch der Islay Vertreter. Vom Rum Fass hätte ich mir allerdings ausgeprägtere Fruchtnoten erwartet.

Blendet wunderbar mit dem Project 20 ;-)

Note: 2

Finish

7/10

General description

Soft and gentle both on nose and palate. Mix between rum and unpeated scotch single malt.

I was looking forward to tasting this for a while. I'ts a good dram, but not as good as I was hoping. Somewhat disappointed. But still a good dram.

General description

By far the best of the experimental series I have tasted. It's goal really is achieved. Nice balance in smokiness and fresh sweetness. When pouring some, expect a nice crisp whisky with decent bite to it, very oily as well

General description

A bit to "sweet" for my taste, but absolutely drinkable. Smokey, with a long taste. Can drink it again, but would not buy it.

General description

äähhm.... bin zu rauchversäucht😂🙈... kaum rauch bemerkbar... und auch sonst ganz flach... irgendwie typisch glenfriderich.... braucht man nicht... ausnahme bleibt der projekt xx

General description

spicy, sweet, smoky and bitter. it's super balanced. I get cinnamon, peat, bitter citrus (maybe grapefruit), green fruit, and a chewy toffee finish. Not bad overall

General description

smells more like a bourbon, brown sugar and molasses, maybe some tropical fruit. taste started out sweet, dark fruits, developing a peaty smoke that fades into a sweet finish. works for me, but I like big flavors

General description

Very smooth. Considering the price, one of the best "value for money" in my collection

General description

smokey with a beautiful sweet, caramel, aftertaste.

Sweet and fruity with a gentle smoky spiciness. Apple pie with cinnamon, rum soaked raisins and a puff of smoke.

Smoked pear, vanilla apple pie, cider, green banana and a light soapy note.

Palate

Sweet, lightly spicy and a touch of smoke. Apple, cinnamon, creamy toffee and - tucked away in the back - notes of rum.

Lingering, with mocha, nutmeg and cooked apple.

General description

I love the peat smoke, but other than that it is a typical Highland single malt to me. Not my preference.

General description

first delicate peat smoke. after that caramel, fruit (pear) sweetness. medium long finish where the peatflavors return. Another great experiment from glenfiddich.

General description

great offering by glenfiddich. subtle peat smoke. more earthy and heather. combined with a sweet pear and plum mid palate. medium finish
