December 19, 2021 (IANSlife) There's nothing like a whisky to keep you warm on a cold night. To spice things up take your nightcap with a twit this season. The Glenfiddich 15 Year Old, proudly called ‘Our Solera Fifteen’ is a single malt innovation first pioneered in 1998. The Solera system marries whiskies matured in sherry, bourbon and new oak casks. Always kept at least half full, the Solera Vat creates a harmonious whisky with deep layers of warm spice, honey and fruit that gets richer and more complex every year.
