Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Glenfiddich 30

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 43%

Score: 95 Points

Like the Glenfiddich 12 and 18-year-old whiskies, this uses a mix of approximately 80% refill bourbon casks and 20% ex-sherry casks. The nose has walnuts, figs, nutmeg, toffee, and vanilla. The taste is very smooth and spicy with cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and vanilla. The finish is lingering with notes of brown sugar and ginger.
