Distillery Information

Glenfiddich has been distilled at the same site in Dufftown, Speyside, since 1887 and is still owned by the Grant family today through William Grant & Sons. The 18 Year Old is made from whisky matured separately in American oak and Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, then married in small batches, giving it the extra depth and roundness that sets it apart from the younger expressions in the range.
