The Glenfiddich Experimental Series IPA Cask Finish is a bold and innovative single malt whisky that explores the influence of craft beer casks on whisky maturation. After aging in traditional oak casks, it is finished in casks that previously held India Pale Ale (IPA), which imparts hoppy, citrusy notes to the whisky.
The result is a vibrant flavor profile with a balance of fruitiness, floral notes, and a slight bitterness, complemented by hints of oak and spice. This whisky offers a refreshing and adventurous experience, with a smooth finish and an intriguing complexity.
Glenfiddich is one of the most renowned and awarded producers of single malt whisky in the world, with a rich tradition dating back to 1887. Founded in Dufftown, in the heart of Scotland's Speyside region, Glenfiddich remains family-owned and proudly continues to use the same traditional production methods, combining craftsmanship with innovation.
