Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch 40 Year

Casks for this, the fourth vatting of 40 Year Old, were laid down in 1961, 1965 and 1966 - the same years The Beatles first performed at Liverpool’s Cavern Club, Sir Winston Churchill died and The Sound of Music was released, respectively. Bottles come in a solid oak presentation box with detailed tasting notes from renowned whisky writer Michael Jackson.

For 20 years William Grant nurtured a dream to make the ‘best dram in the valley’. With the help of his family, he finally achieved that vision. In the summer of 1886, with his seven sons and two daughters by his side, William set out to fulfil a lifelong ambition. Together they began building his Distillery by hand, stone by stone. After a single year of work it was ready and William named it Glenfiddich, Gaelic for Valley of the Deer. William’s passion, determination and pioneering spirit continues to guide us today. Glenfiddich is one of the few single malt distilleries to remain entirely family owned and is now the World’s Most Awarded Single Malt* Scotch Whisky, a true reflection of our founder’s innovative nature, passed down through the generations.
