Nose: 1974 Glenfiddich Vintage Reserve is rich and oaky with vibrant vanilla sweetness and an intriguing hint of polished leather and liquorice. With the addition of a little water there is a burst of fresh fruit and spice - orange marmalade, ripe berries, cinnamon, nutmeg and caramelised pear.
Palate: Initially very sweet with a vanilla toffee character; the oak tannin develops with time giving a pleasing, oily texture and a slightly drier flavour. With water, it becomes velvety soft and mellow with beautiful layers of fruit, spice, oak and the merest hint of smoke.
Finish: Very long lasting with lingering oak.
