Glenfiddich 18 Year Old is a premium single malt Scotch whisky matured for 18 years in Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks. This careful aging process delivers rich baked apple and cinnamon spice notes, making it a complex and award-winning spirit from Scotland.
Product attributes: Vegetarian.
Small Batch Reserve: Carefully matures for 18 years in the finest Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks built by our own expert coopers. These casks are then nurtured in small batches for a further three months, for a remarkable deep, rich and complex flavour.
Nurtured in Small Batches: After our whisky has spent 18 years patiently maturing in the finest Oloroso sherry and bourbon oak casks, Brian Kinsman, our pioneering Malt Master, personally hand-selects just 150 exceptional casks, marrying these remarkably small batches together in large wooden runs. Nurtured for a further three months, each of these individually numbered batches adds an unrivalled and award-winning richness, complexity and depth.
Our Award-Winning Style: The Glenfiddich 18 Year Old is the perfect example of our signature style, one that's made us the world's most awarded single malt. Rich baked apple and cinnamon spice complemented by robust oak notes that have deepened and mellowed over time.
Family Run Since 1887: William Grant, who founded and ran our distillery from 1887, passed down the importance of wood for making our malt. His great grandson, Charles Gordon, expanded our cooperage in 1959 - a foresight which means the quality of our oak casks will always meet his exacting standards.

Brand details: Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch Whisky. Our History: In 1886, William Grant fulfilled a lifelong ambition by building his own distillery. He named it Glenfiddich, Gaelic for Valley of the Deer, and on Christmas Day 1887 the first drop flowed from the stills. Today, still owned by William Grant's family, Glenfiddich is the world's leading single malt.
Our Coopers and Casks: We are one of few distilleries to retain an on-site cooperage, ensuring every cask we use is of the highest quality. After 18 years in Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks, our whisky is married in oak tuns for at least three months in small, numbered batches. With award-winning depth and complexity, Glenfiddich 18 Year Old has notes of baked apple and cinnamon.
