Glenfiddich Orchard Experiment: A Fusion of Scottish Craftsmanship and Somerset Innovation
Unveiling the Orchard Experiment – Experimental Series 05
A Culmination of Heritage and Innovation
Welcome to the Glenfiddich Orchard Experiment, an extraordinary collaboration between two iconic families, two entrepreneurial minds, and two historic spirits. The Experimental Series 05 marks a groundbreaking venture that transcends geographical boundaries and brings together the expertise of Brian Kinsman, Glenfiddich’s Malt Master, and Matilda Temperley, Master Distiller of Somerset Cider Brandy Company.
A Journey to Somerset’s Apple Orchards
In the scenic landscape of Somerset, located in the southwest of England, Brian Kinsman embarked on a journey that would shape the future of Scotch whisky. Meeting Matilda Temperley amidst acres of vintage apple orchards proved to be a serendipitous encounter. It was in these orchards that the idea for the Orchard Experiment was born.
Somerset Pomona: Aromatic Inspiration
The Somerset Pomona, a harmonious blend of apple cider brandy and apple juice, became the catalyst for an aromatic exploration. Brian Kinsman’s fascination with this unique spirit led to a pioneering experiment—the first-ever single malt Scotch whisky finished in Somerset Pomona spirit casks. This innovation symbolizes the fusion of Scottish craftsmanship and Somerset’s rich cider-making heritage.
Ripened in a Scottish Valley, Inspired by a Somerset Orchard
The Orchard Experiment emerges as a crisp and sweet addition to Glenfiddich’s Experimental Series. Each sip encapsulates the essence of the Somerset orchards, creating a whisky that resonates with the vibrant flavors of ripe apples and the depth of Scottish valleys.
