Glenfiddich whisky

Glenfiddich is a Speyside single malt made in Dufftown by William Grant & Sons. This page compares current offers on bottles including the 12 Year Old, 18 Year Old and Grand Cru 23 Year Old, with other ages appearing when retailers have stock.

The standard range is usually unpeated, and most smoke tags here are inferred from that house style rather than the label. Fire & Cane is a peated exception, according to the producer. Compare the age, series, size and edition before judging prices; Grand series releases sit apart from the core age-stated range. For a cask-led alternative, compare sherry-cask whisky.
