Conclusion:
This 26 year old Single malt whisky is one of the whiskies in the range of the Grand series by Glenfiddich. This single malt whisky is the crown on their series. Grande Couronne meaning Crown in French. Matured in American & European oak and finished for 2 years in French Oak Casks. The packaging and bottle is magnificent, but the price for this whisky is for someone that is willing to pay more then 500 euro. Someone that wears a crown maybe..
