What critics and judges wrote

IWSC judges · Silver · 2025
Fruity aromas with vanilla cream led to a palate of poached pears, rhubarb and custard candies, and baking spices. The finish is elegant and dry, balancing fruit, tobacco, and lemon notes.

A mineral-driven nose with subtle pastry and floral hints leads to a palate of spicy oak, ripe pear, and grassy notes.
Bronze2024iwsc.net ↗
This beverage offers a pleasant balance of spice and fruit aromas. A creamy base and subtle pastry notes complete the flavour profile.
Bronze2023iwsc.net ↗
Quite savoury with notes of cardboard, leather and nuts, balanced with sweet liquorice spice.
Gold2022iwsc.net ↗
A full and creamy example of Speyside Malt with grassy notes over delicate fruit notes of sweet orange and red apple. Wood smoke builds on a fleshy palate before tapering off to a smooth and deliciously sweet finish.
Silver2021iwsc.net ↗
Charming with vibrant flavours of fresh fruit and orange zest with a hint of vanilla. A touch of aniseed runs through the palate and the finish is long.
Silver2020iwsc.net ↗
Very buttery in style with a touch of exotic and thick marmalade orange rind encompassing a gentle warmth of citrus, dark chocolate and spicy oak which then lingers on the palate.
Silver2019iwsc.net ↗
Very charming and pronounced, with elegant spicy notes, including cinnamon, aniseed and poached pears, on a perfumed nose. The palate is sweet and finely balanced, with baking spices, toffee apples and cinnamon icing, ending in a long, lingering rich finish.
Silver Outstanding2016iwsc.net ↗
Homemade cinnamon apple pie resting in the summer sunshine, … Drizzled honey, peaches and melon continue the nose which leads into a relaxed and fruit palate of real lemonade, freshly pressed apple juice and a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg.
Wine Enthusiast · Kara Newman · December 2013
Lush and rich, this honeyed whisky is loaded with dense notes of creamy custard and tropical fruit, finishing with a flourish of baking spice.

Falstaff · August 2019
The nose is characterised by fruity apple notes, citrus fruits and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the whisky is extremely easy to drink and clearly characterised by cereal-scented notes. Light, carefree single malt enjoyment.

Whisky Advocate · Dave Broom · 2013
It might be me, but it strikes me that 'Fiddich has more heft to it these days, with a sherried element giving the pear, apple, and light cereal of the distillery character a sweet, plump, sultana underpinning. … Great balance.

Distiller · Stephanie Moreno
… the 12 year is aromatic with orchard fruits, butterscotch, and wood spices. There are tasting notes of oatmeal with cinnamon on the palate and though the finish is brief, it goes gentle into that good night.

World Whiskies Awards judges · Bronze · 2015
Is that green leaves on the nose? A floral forest in summer bloom. Cedar wood and ginger cake. Draft, light ale with a honey note on the palate. Slightly dry, malty, overall very enjoyable. A well structured whisky.
