Introducing the Limited Edition Glenfiddich 16-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky under the Concept “Club 1959”
Glenfiddich, the world’s most awarded single malt Scotch whisky, unveils its Limited Edition Glenfiddich 16-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky — a tribute to the brand’s long-standing collaboration with the Aston Martin Formula One™ Team.
This launch celebrates a seamless blend of craftsmanship and instinct, reflecting the shared values of precision, innovation, and pursuit of excellence that both Glenfiddich and Aston Martin hold dear.
Crafted from a meticulous selection of American oak casks including ex-wine casks, new American oak, and ex-bourbon casks — the Glenfiddich 16-Year-Old delivers a distinctive flavour profile with notes of maple syrup and candied ginger. The palate reveals the smooth freshness of fruit salad and Chantilly cream, finishing with a refined yet powerful balance — reminiscent of the deep connection between a driver and their car.
“At Glenfiddich, we remain true to our heritage while embracing innovation,” said Brian Kinsman, Glenfiddich Malt Master. “The Glenfiddich 16-Year-Old embodies this philosophy, a marriage of craftsmanship and precision that invites discovery, much like our journey with the Aston Martin Formula One™ Team, celebrating the harmony between tradition and the thrill of innovation.”
Two Icons Blending Heritage and Innovation
Glenfiddich’s Speyside Distillery announced its long-term partnership with the Aston Martin Formula One™ Team in November 2024, with its debut at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. This collaboration brings together two legendary names that share a passion for mastery and design excellence.
Claudia Falcone, Global Brand Director of Glenfiddich, remarked: “We’re thrilled to introduce this limited-edition whisky to celebrate our partnership with the Aston Martin Formula One™ Team. Through this collaboration, we invite fans around the world to experience these two iconic brands in a new dimension, creating moments that go beyond the racetrack. This marks just the beginning of an exciting new chapter we’ll build together.”
