Glenfiddich translates to 'Valley of the Deer' in Gaelic, founded by William Grant in 1887 in Speyside, Scotland. As one of the few remaining family-run independent distilleries in the world, Glenfiddich has always upheld its pioneering spirit. In 1963, when blended whisky dominated the market, Glenfiddich boldly introduced single malt whisky to the international stage, rewriting the history of whisky.
Glenfiddich 18 Years Old perfectly embodies the brand's unwavering commitment to quality. Beyond maturation in traditional Oloroso sherry casks and American bourbon casks, the critical process for this expression is its 'Marrying Period.' The malt master transfers the liquid from various casks into large wooden marrying tuns to rest for at least three months, allowing different flavor profiles to fully meld together. This uncompromising investment of time creates its signature silky texture and complex aroma. To this day, this classic expression remains a regular gold medal winner at international spirits competitions such as the IWSC and ISC.
