Na zalogi

<p><i>Cumulative Time is an appropriate name for this 40-year-old whisky because it's made using a technique called remnant vatting. It's a process unique to the distillery in which the malt master carries one batch over, time and time again, before marrying it with the casks selected for each subsequent release. This is done to imbue the spirit with the character of past releases and to accumulate layers of flavour over 40 years. The bottle is presented in a handmade jesmonite box with subtle markings on each so they're unique and unable to be replicated.</i></p><p>Limited to 850 bottles.<br><br>Awards:<br>- Gold medal in 2013 at the International Spirits Challange.<br>- Gold medal in 2012 at the International Wine &amp; Spirit Competition.</p><h3>Tasting Note</h3><p><strong>Nose:</strong> A deeply layered expression of dried fruits, dark chocolate, roasted coffee and ripe black cherries. Completed with subtle waves of gentle wood smoke, polished leather, and cloves.</p><p><strong>Palate:</strong> A luxuriously full and silky smooth taste, with memories of past releases in every nuanced note. Evolving from deep dried fruit notes to rich fruitcake, dates, raisins, and stewed apples, before giving way to dry oaky notes, with subtle hints of bitter chocolate and peat.</p><p><strong>Finish:</strong> Complex, memorable, and exquisitely long-lasting.</p><p>JUST AS GLENFIDDICH 40 IS COMPOSED THROUGH THE ACCUMULATION OF TIME, SO TOO IS THE PACKAGING WHICH HOUSES IT - A BOLD, MAVERICK TAKE ON A GEOLOGICAL METAMORPHOSIS.</p><p>THE 40 YEAR OLD CRYSTAL DECANTER IS HOUSED IN A UNIQUE, SCULPTURAL JESMONITE CONTAINER. DRAMATIC GROOVES CARVED INTO THIS INNOVATIVE STONE-LIKE MATERIAL EXPOSES THE INTERTWINING VEINS WHICH FLOW THROUGH IT, FROM THE SHINING GREEN GLASS OF OUR ICONIC 12-YEAR-OLD BOTTLE, TO THE GLEAMING COPPER OF THE STILLS IN WHICH THIS SINGLE MALT WAS MASTERFULLY DISTILLED.</p>
