Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы описывают Glenfiddich Smooth & Mellow как простой, лёгкий и фруктовый виски, который хорошо подходит для непритязательного знакомства, но часто критикуется за недостаток сложности и тонкость текстуры.
развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах виски чаще всего характеризуется как простой и лёгкий для питья. Несколько отзывов отмечают фруктовые ноты — грушу, яблоки, цитрусовые, а также сладость и мягкость. Часть отзывов описывает его как «лёгкий летний» виски, подходящий для начинающих или как непритязательный выбор с полки. При этом неоднократно указывается на недостаток сложности, короткий финиш, а в некоторых случаях — горьковатость или тонкость текстуры. Один отзыв прямо называет его несбалансированным и слишком молодым, другой — «простым» с качеством, соответствующим цене. В целом тексты сходятся на том, что это доступный, фруктовый и лёгкий виски без большой глубины.

Glenfiddich "tick the box", but great for absolute beginners if you are in the travels and just want some quick whisky choice from the shelf, which is not core range.

Really enjoyable as an easy sipper without giving it too much thought. Simple and fruity at a very reasonable price With Water: Relatively little change to the palate, the slightest hint of chocolate or coffee and some minimal oak influence

| Нос | 83 | Relatively one dimensional but pleasant. Orchard fruits, predominantly pear, syrupy and sweet with notes of jam. |
| Вкус | 81 | Classic Speyside, sweet, fruity, easy to drink. A nice toasted element which I didn't expect from the nose |
| Финиш | 79 | Short with sweetness with a gentle warmth |
The name describes it. Lots of fruit. Pears, apples. It lacks complexity and the finish is slightly bitter. it's such a light summer whisky. Ordinary, but still memorable, mainly thanks to the scent, which promises a lot but then... a bit boring after that.

- an unbalanced, young, fruity whisky - Bottled too early, drinkable but not really tasty - certainly not worth buying as a whole bottle, - worse than the current 12-year-old from Glenfiddich - For 50 to 60€, it's a complete joke => NOT recommended. - max. below average to average drinkable single malt => and the quality should be around 70 points. ending (it's incomprehensible how this whisky can survive at over 75) (can land points)

| Нос | 84 | Fresh green apples, melon, grassy and floral, some ripe and overripe apples, vanilla cream, tones of white wine in the background |
| Вкус | 82 | A lot of sour green apples, a bit citrus, grassy, notes of bitterness of oak, a pinch of cinnamon, a whiff of fresh herbs, tones of dry white wine in the background |
| Финиш | 80 | Medium length, sour green apples with oak bitterness and a hint of fresh herbs |
In my world of values, this is a young, simple, and at best average single malt - and average for me means: 60 to 69 points!

It’s simple whisky. Thin, mild and easy. It’s quite orangey and not much depth. The price of the bottle tells its quality. Not quite smooth though. Nothing more to mention.
The initial scent is very subtle, with a hint of wood. After a day, it develops a tangerine peel aroma and a hint of wildflowers (somewhat like tangerine peel and dried plum). It then transitions to a softer, slightly oily, milky aroma, transitioning into a woody scent. The alcohol content is very low, making it very drinkable (I suspect it's NCF). It's very rounded, quite light, and slightly sweet. My rating is approximately equal to or greater than Filey Bay Flagship, with a lighter sweetness but a slightly longer dry-down and more complex flavor profile.
The subtitle "Smooth & Mellow" seems a bit euphemistic. The red wine barrels come through quite well, but (in my opinion) they also provide a somewhat impetuous spiciness and also slightly over-acidified aromas. After all, they manage it but also quite well to play over the youthfulness. At most, if I hide the aromas on the palate, I could speak of "Smooth & Mellow" in the mouthfeel. In the end, I'm glad I only have one sample of this bottling. Even for a liter bottle, I find the price quite ambitious when I look at the taste experience that is offered here.

| Нос | 83 | Very present in the glass - sweet-sour and beautifully flowery, although not quite balanced. The red wine barrel comes through well. Vanilla, caramel, both green and slightly rotten apples, flower meadow, blossom honey, cherry wine, anise, a hint of cinnamon, cherry wine gum, delicate oak spice. |
| Вкус | 81 | Very slightly tingling start. Spicy and velvety on the palate, also slightly watery. Only slightly sweet, the sour notes are a little more dominant. Oak spice, apple, anise, some vanilla, caramel, unripe cherries, green pear. |
| Финиш | 83 | Short to medium length finish. Tart red fruits with spicy woody notes. Walnut, dry wood, beechnuts. At the end there is also the typical Glefiddich pear. |
serinin klasik şişesini denemek lazım belki de.Vat 01 çok iyi değil.
It's roughly on par with a Tamnavulin NAS. One hides the youth behind active barrels. This sweet wine variant is okay, but nothing more. But you couldn't hide the youth 100%. With a little more time in the bottle, it calms down and doesn't seem so young anymore, but it doesn't lift me out of my chair. Rock solid, that's fine. After the bottle had been standing for a while I increased it from 83 to 84. 40-50€ per liter is ok, but apparently you pay 10€ for the exclusivity.

| Нос | 86 | sweet, wine notes are noticeable, blindly I would have guessed sweet wine instead of red wine, you have nice fruits in the direction of peach and mango, green-yellow apples, it is gentle, but not bland, I like it a lot |
| Вкус | 82 | Gentle and fruity on the palate, then it shows its youthful side, the spiciness is not too bad, but noticeable, the aroma is not very deep, but pleasant, apple, some peach, slightly tart, some honey sweetness, the wine impression comes out more towards the end , no watery impression |
| Финиш | 84 | the acidic wine note remains, the rest disappears quite quickly, it has a slight tannic bitterness, the youth and the barrel make the cheeks sizzle, a green apple remains, pleasant |
loved the fruity notes and great aftertase
Acceptable aroma and taste, but unfortunately overall texture is too thin. I wish it had higher ABV...
