Award-winning single malt Scotch whisky Glenfiddich has announced the launch of Grande Couronne, a 26-year-old whisky matured in American and European oak casks, then finished in French Cognac casks. French for “Great Crown,” Grande Couronne joins Glenfiddich’s Grand Series, the brand’s premium series of single malts. Glenfiddich “The Grand Series perfectly encapsulates Glenfiddich’s spirit of innovation and our ability to experiment with aged liquid and intriguing finishes. Grande Couronne is the latest to exemplify that approach,” said Glenfiddich Malt Master Brian Kinsman in a statement. “It is the only Glenfiddich single malt that has matured in American and European oak casks and finished in rare French Cognac casks. The length of the finish, two years, is highly unusual and adds extra layers of sweet toasted oak and velvety aromas of café crème, brown sugar, and soft spice.” Grande Couronne is presented in an opulent glass bottle wrapped in a filigree gold print. The bottle is placed in an artistically embossed box with a scene reminiscent of the spirit of the French court and vibrancy of the taste found within. Official Tasting Notes Color: Antique gold. Nose: Vibrant and lively with an abundance of toasty oak sweetness. Reminiscent of a French pâtisserie, freshly-baked Tarte Tatin, and buttery choux pastry. Taste: Deep, velvety smooth, and indulgently sweet. Café crème with soft brown sugar and a hint of spice. Finish: Very long-lasting sweet oak. The Grand Series also includes Glenfiddich Grand Cru, aged for 23 years in American and European Oak casks and then finessed in French cuvée oak casks, and Glenfiddich Gran Reserva, patiently mellowed for 21 years in bourbon casks before a final flourish in Caribbean rum casks. Grande Couronne is available at a suggested retail price of $620 USD. For more information or to purchase a bottle visit the official Glenfiddich website.
