Matured in a combination of European and American oak casks and finished in Glenfiddich’s signature Solera Vat, Glenfiddich Vintage Cask is a rare, lightly peated single malt crafted exclusively for global travel retail. This unique expression offers a bold departure from Glenfiddich’s classic Speyside style, with layers of smoky character balanced by sweetness and floral complexity. Created by Malt Master Brian Kinsman, this vatting showcases the expertise of Glenfiddich’s coopers and blenders in selecting and marrying casks for depth and refinement.

Every bottle reflects Glenfiddich’s commitment to quality, heritage, and craftsmanship.
