When William Grant \u0026amp; Sons launched Glenfiddich as a single malt in 1963, it was a revolutionary act: at a time when blended Scotch dominated the market and single malts were virtually unknown outside Scotland, Glenfiddich dared to bottle and market its spirit on its own merits. The gamble paid off magnificently, and today Glenfiddich 12 remains the benchmark by which all entry-level single malts are measured.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded on Christmas Day 1887 by William Grant and his family in the Glenfiddich glen of Speyside — the name means \"Valley of the Deer\" in Gaelic, reflected in the iconic stag on every bottle — the distillery remains family-owned to this day, a remarkable achievement for a brand of this global scale. The 12 Year Old is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon American oak and ex-oloroso sherry casks, then married together in large oak vats to achieve the signature fresh, fruity, and approachable Glenfiddich house style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose is fresh, light, and immediately inviting — fresh pear, green apple, and a gentle floral sweetness, with soft notes of vanilla, cream, and a subtle hint of oak. On the palate, it's light-bodied and beautifully smooth: crisp fruit, soft malt, a touch of honey, and a gentle warming spice build with a freshness and elegance that makes it one of the most universally approachable single malts in the world. The finish is clean, medium-length, and gently fruity — pear, vanilla, and a soft oak warmth fading gracefully.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glenfiddich Distillery, Dufftown, Speyside, Scotland (est. 1887)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Speyside\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 Years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40% \/ \u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Malt Scotch Whisky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaturation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ex-bourbon American oak \u0026amp; ex-oloroso sherry casks, married in oak vats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOwnership:\u003c\/strong\u003e Family-owned (William Grant \u0026amp; Sons, est. 1887)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecognition:\u003c\/strong\u003e World's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh pear, green apple, vanilla, cream, honey, soft malt, gentle spice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Glenfiddich","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45870316781802,"sku":null,"price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8250\/0586\/files\/GLENFIDDICH_12_37fe52a3-14eb-43a9-9318-aec531270ee2.jpg?v=1777940189","url":"https:\/\/americanfinespirits.com\/products\/glenfiddich-sherry-cask-scotch-whiskey-12yr-750ml","provider":"American Fine Spirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
