Glenfiddich 14yr Bourbon Barrel Reserve 375ml

The bourbon cask influence really comes through—it's rich and sweet without being syrupy. Finished the small bottle in just a few sittings, which says a lot.

That extra finish in the charred new oak really comes through — it’s like a warm vanilla pulse right after the bourbon sweetness. The 375ml bottle is perfect for trying it out without committing to a full fifth, and honestly, it’s dangerously smooth for the price.

The extra time in the charred new oak barrels gives it a nice vanilla kick that really sets it apart from the usual bourbon-cask scotch. I was hoping for a slightly bolder finish, but it's still a very smooth and enjoyable dram.
