Glenfiddich, Single Malt Scotch Whisky 14 Years Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve, NV bdxcount0925 There’s a whisper of earthinessSpeyside's biggest name goes all in on American oak.

Underneath all that sweetness it's still recognizably Glenfiddich: orchard fruit, honey, a clean malty core, no smoke. The result is a single malt with a bourbon drinker's handshake, which is exactly who it was built
