Founded in 1887 by William Grant, Glenfiddich is one of the few single-malt distilleries to remain entirely family-owned; it is today stewarded by the fifth generation of the Grant family and is now the world's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky. “Cask of Dreams” is a limited edition, for the U. S. market only, launched in 2012 to commemorate the 125th anniversary of the distillery. The name merits a bit of explanation. As part of the aniversary celebration, the distillery took eleven new American oak casks on a tour of major American cities; they invited whisky fans to write down their dreams and inspirations on the casks themselves, and sign the wood. Once the casks had been inscribed, they were taken back to Scotland and filled with a Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch Whisky that had already matured for a minimum of 14 years (and up to 16 years) in ex-bourbon casks. Given the use of new American oak, this is a whisky accented by a vanilla sweetness but also well balanced by fruity aromas and spicy flavors.
