Glenfiddich Snow Phoenix (Small Dent In Front Of Tin)

The whisky’s creation was inspired by the collapse of several Glenfiddich distillery roofs in January 2010, following weeks of heavy snow and record low temperatures. Weighed down by four feet of densely compacted snow, the roofs collapsed and exposed hundreds of maturing oak casks to the night sky. In wintery conditions and temperatures of -19ËšC, distillery staff swung into action – working round the clock to clear the snow.

Snow Phoenix was created by marrying together natural strength and non-chill filtered casks of different ages and finishes, including American oak and Oloroso sherry. There was a release of 1,600 bottles in total.

Bottled: 2010

Cask Type: vatting of American oak and Oloroso sherry among others

47.6% ABV / 70cl
