Caskstrength Visitors

By Ian

I had a short meeting with Joel Harrison and Neil Ridley of caskstrength.net last week, our meeting took place in Warehouse 8 at Glenfiddich Distillery, home of the Solera Vat through which every bottle of Glenfiddich 15 year old must flow, so they tried a wee drop.

Happy Chappy at the Solera Vat

We also had a look at Chill Filtration as it seems to be a hot subject right now, a lot of our consumers think that chill filtration strips out flavour, we chill at plus 2 and take great care in getting the flow rate through the filter right. the ultimate test of course is flavour so we nose the whisky pre and post, our nosing panel has never picked up any differences.

I was also able to sample them on a few older variants such as the 40 year old, they seemed to enjoy it……
