Fireside ‘Fiddich
A personal favourite of many at the Glenfiddich distillery, the 15-Year-Old is a truly special single malt exemplifying the family’s tradition of innovation. Aged in European, American, and New American oak, the whisky is then mellowed in a unique Solera vat before being married in Portuguese oak tuns. Bursting with warm, spicy flavours of sherry oak, marzipan, cinnamon and ginger, this full-bodied single malt makes for the perfect dram to cozy up with by the fire or to stir into a toasty holiday cocktail.

½ oz Dry Curacao
