The Glenfiddich Anniversary Vintage, one of the rarest whiskies ever released by Glenfiddich, is now available. But you will have to be quick because there are only 286 bottles available and each will cost at least £699. Celebrating 125 years of whisky making at The Glenfiddich Distillery, this limited edition 25 year old whisky is the latest addition to the coveted Glenfiddich Rare Collection. This special whisky is steeped in history. It was casked in a European oak sherry butt on Christmas Day 1987, Glenfiddich’s centenary anniversary. A quarter of a century later, Glenfiddich Malt Master, Brian Kinsman pre-selected a small number of the special centenary casks so that on the 125th anniversary of the first spirit running from the distillery’s stills, Glenfiddich founder William Grant’s great-great grandson Peter Gordon and his son Dougal could choose cask number 19996 to become the Glenfiddich Anniversary Vintage.
Commenting on the release, Company Director Peter Gordon said, “It was an honour to select this whisky. Born of two momentous anniversaries for our distillery, this whisky truly reflects the pioneering spirit that has underpinned our 125 year history and my great-great grandfather’s legacy of making ‘the best dram in the valley.”
