Glenfiddich 15 Year Old Single Malt
Exemplifying Glenfiddich's family’s tradition of innovation, the 15 Year Old expression is created using a technique pioneered by their Malt Master and its warm, spicy flavours are transformed with the alchemy of the Solera Vat. Aged in European oak sherry casks and new oak casks, the whisky is mellowed in a unique Solera Vat, a large oak tun inspired by the sherry bodegas of Spain and Portugal. Never emptied, and kept half full of whiskies since 1998, a Solera Vat is the culmination of curious minds and the pioneering spirit of the family. It’s also the secret behind this whisky becoming the first 15 year old expression to enter the top ten best selling single malts.
Lochlea x Overtone Stout Cask Finish Single Malt Whisky
Lochlea x Overtone Stout Cask Finish Single Malt Whisky is a limited edition collaboration between Lochlea Distillery in Ayrshire and Glasgow’s Overtone Brewery. Bottled at 52% ABV, non‑chill filtered and with no added colour, it preserves its natural character and showcases the distillery’s commitment to authenticity and craftsmanship. This second and final release in the partnership was matured in just five casks: three stout‑seasoned (two Bourbon barrels and one STR barrique), one first fill Bourbon barrel and one ex‑peated Bourbon barrel. The result is a whisky that deepens the stout’s earthy, chocolatey character while enhancing sweet vanilla and gentle smoke, carefully married to harmonise the flavours. The nose opens with rich notes of sweet stout beer, light smoke and oak. The palate is layered and indulgent, delivering creamy vanilla, cinder toffee and rich BBQ smoke. The finish lingers with warming spice, green oak, rye bread and cereal notes, leaving a complex and satisfying impression. Produced by Lochlea, an independent family‑run distillery dedicated to local ingredients, sustainable practices and full on‑site maturation, this whisky reflects both tradition and innovation. The collaboration with Overtone Brewery, which began with shared casks used to mature stout before being returned for whisky finishing, has resulted in a distinctive spirit that offers a familiar yet unique profile. This release marks the final chapter in the Overtone partnership, crafted with passion and precision for whisky lovers to savour.
