One of the duo of releases in Glenfiddich's Experimental Series, ‘IPA' was finished for 3 months in casks that previously held the Speyside Craft Brewery's India pale ale. The nose offers hops and honey, malt, toffee, cooking apples, and lemon. Smooth on the palate, with more honey and toffee, soft spices and, ultimately, slightly bitter, hoppy ale notes. The finish is medium in length, with dry spices and plain chocolate.
