Glenfiddich Experimental Series Project XX 70cl, 47%

Description

Glenfiddich Experimental Series Project XX 70cl, 47% is one of the early releases in Glenfiddich’s Experimental Series and was created by bringing together 20 whisky experts, each of whom selected a cask to help shape the final whisky. Glenfiddich presents it as a pioneering expression, while trade descriptions note that the chosen casks spanned styles such as sherry butts, bourbon barrels and port pipes, giving the whisky a broader and more layered character than a standard bottling.

What makes this bottle especially appealing is the way it keeps the classic Glenfiddich fruit-forward style but builds more depth around it. Project XX is warm, mellow and expressive, with apple blossom, ripe pear, vanilla oak and golden sugar on the nose, then candyfloss sweetness, toasted almonds and cinnamon on the palate. It feels experimental without losing balance, which is exactly why it remains one of the most recognisable bottles in the series.

Why Choose Glenfiddich Experimental Series Project XX 70cl, 47%

Glenfiddich Experimental Series Project XX 70cl, 47% stands out because it combines the distillery’s familiar Speyside fruitiness with a more layered and collaborative cask concept. The result is richer and broader than a routine core-range Glenfiddich, while still staying smooth, approachable and easy to enjoy. It is a strong choice for buyers who want an Experimental Series bottle with a clear identity and a flavour profile that feels both classic and modern.

Ideal For.

This bottle is ideal for Glenfiddich fans who want one of the best-known Experimental Series releases with a clear place in the range’s early story. It is also ideal for drinkers who enjoy fruity Speyside single malt with vanilla, sweet oak, soft spice and a richer profile rather than peat-led or heavily sherried styles.

Collector’s Note

This bottle has strong collector appeal because it sits among the defining early Experimental Series releases and carries a very clear creation story. Bottles that represent a distinct concept rather than just a different finish often hold stronger shelf identity, and Project XX does that very well through its 20-cask-selector idea and its recognisable flavour style.
