Product description
Glenfiddich Havana Reserve 21 years old Finished in Cuban Rum Casks debuted in 2002.
After more than two decades of maturation in bourbon barrels, the whisky was placed in Cuban rum barrels for 4 months. Despite positive reviews, Havana Reserve did not make it to the American market, most likely due to the embargo imposed in 1960 on all Cuban products. For this reason, this edition immediately gained the status of a collector's whisky overseas.
