INSTRUCTIONS
It used to be that Single Malt was only enjoyed straight or in ātraditionalā Scotch cocktails like a Blood and Sand, ā says Glenfiddich Ambassador Jennifer Wren, ābut these days, with Single Malts being appreciated in so many different contexts and by so many different people, you can find bartenders offering wonderfully light Scotch drinks like spritzes or shrubs. Ā The delicate, fruitier notes of Glenfiddich 14 play very well when paired with sparkling wine, juices, or fresh herbs and the extra oakiness gives the cocktail a little kick – itāa perfect option for a lawn party!
