Glenfiddich Grand Cru 23 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

About Glenfiddich Grand Cru 23 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

In 1886, William Grant, along with the help of his nine children and a single stone mason, began construction of the Glenfiddich Distillery, situated in the Speyside region of Scotland. After a year of hard labor, the first drop of whisky fell from the distillery’s copper-pot stills on Christmas Day 1887. Today, Grant’s passion, determination, and pioneering spirit continue to guide Glenfiddich Distillery, which is stewarded by the fifth generation of the Grant family.

Glenfiddich The Original 1963 Single Malt Scotch Whisky was inspired by the first Glenfiddich Single Malt that the distillery released in the United States in 1963. The 1963 single malt — then called straight malt — helped establish single malt scotch whisky as a distinct category in the United States. The bottles in this feature are produced using the same recipe and specifications as the 1963 whisky, and are labeled to pay homage to the original whisky.

“When you go to the distillery and see all of the amazing things we’ve done, one of the things we haven’t really talked about a lot is the role Glenfiddich played in creating the single malt category,” said Andy Nash, Scotch Whisky category director for William Grant & Sons USA. “Many talk about it and give us the credit for that, and it’s great to actually go back into our archives and see all of those elements and recreate them for a new audience now. It’s really showing the pioneering that Glenfiddich was doing back in the '60s and that we’re continuing today.”

This Grand Cru encapsulates the spirit of luxury and craftsmanship of a Glenfiddich single malt. The finest fusion of flavors from Scotland and France this exclusive Glenfiddich expression has been matured for 23 years in American and European oak casks and elegantly finished in rare French Cuvee casks. Uniquely crafted, surprisingly unorthodox.
