Imagine bringing together twenty whisky experts from around the world, each given the freedom to select their own favorite Glenfiddich cask from the distillery’s private collection. The result? A bold, boundary-pushing experiment called Project XX (pronounced "twenty"). As the second release in Glenfiddich’s Experimental Series, it’s a blend of individuality and collaboration, a whisky that celebrates curiosity, creativity, and the untamed possibilities of single malt.

Glenfiddich Project XX - Experimental Series 2 Single Malt Whisky 70cl
Brand: Glenfiddich | Category: Single Malt Scotch Whisky | ABV: 47% | Origin: Speyside, Scotland | Vol: 700ml

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Like opening a spice cabinet in an old Highland cottage, cinnamon, clove, and creamy vanilla rise first, followed by crisp apple, pear, and just a whisper of toasted oak.
Palate: Complex but balanced, silky to start, with waves of sweet fudge, juicy fruits, roasted almonds, and hints of licorice. The higher ABV brings a vibrant warmth without overwhelming the palate.
Finish: Long, warming, and layered, soft spices and oak linger, leaving a satisfying dryness and a memory of dark chocolate and baking spice.

Production Details:
This whisky is a blend of 20 unique casks chosen by 20 handpicked whisky experts, including port pipes, sherry butts, and bourbon barrels. Master Blender Brian Kinsman then harmonized the selections into a unified expression that carries the DNA of Glenfiddich but with a punchier, more adventurous edge. It’s bottled at a bold 47% ABV, non-chill filtered, to retain its full character.

Perfect For:
Project XX is for late-night thinkers and spirited conversations, the kind that happen in leather armchairs with records playing softly in the background. It's ideal for whisky fans looking to explore outside the expected, or to surprise someone who thinks they’ve already tasted it all.

Expert Notes:
Praised for its depth and uniqueness, Project XX offers layers that unfold with each sip. Critics and enthusiasts often describe it as Glenfiddich "with the gloves off", still refined, but more expressive and daring than usual. It's a whisky that rewards revisiting, each time offering something new.

Customer Reviews:
“Surprisingly rich for a Glenfiddich. It’s like the distillery’s rebellious cousin showed up to the party.”
“Loved how it evolved in the glass, sweet, spicy, then dry and oaky. A real journey in a bottle.”
“My favorite of the Experimental Series. Bold, balanced, and full of personality.”

Interesting Fact:
The “XX” in the name is a nod to the 20 casks and 20 collaborators, but it’s also a playful reference to secret experiments and the unknown. It was launched in a hidden tasting event where each expert selected their cask in secrecy, adding an air of mystery to its origin.

Serving Suggestions:
Enjoy it neat to appreciate its layers of spice and sweetness. A few drops of water bring out more fruit and floral notes, while a large ice cube mellows the edges for a smoother, slower sip. Try it with dark chocolate, roasted nuts, or even sharp cheese to unlock new dimensions.

Distillery Background:
Glenfiddich, meaning “Valley of the Deer” in Gaelic, is one of the most iconic and awarded single malt distilleries in the world. Still owned by the founding Grant family, the distillery is known for balancing tradition with innovation. With the Experimental Series, Glenfiddich invites whisky lovers into a world of bold ideas, where blending mastery meets creative risk. Project XX is the perfect embodiment of that spirit.
