Brand Story

Glenfiddich is the world's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky. The fifth generation of the family business, Glenfiddich retains the innovative character of its founder, William Grant, and continues to surprise the world with new modern whiskies. The distillery was founded in 1886 by William Grant and is still family-owned today. As the family did not have much money, they built up the distillery on their own. The equipment was bought second-hand (partly from the Cardhu distillery). The first whisky flowed at Glenfiddich in 1887. The distillery flourished, but was badly hit by the bankruptcy of a major customer in 1898. However, Glenfiddich survived on its own, as William Grant began to produce blended whiskies. The distillery always remained family-owned and was one of the few distilleries to survive during the two world wars.

Product Detail

Grand Yozakura is a 29 year old whisky aged at the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown and aged in oak casks with Awamori, one of Japan's oldest distillates, resulting in a distinctive finish.The Grand range is a collection of outstanding single malt whiskies characterized by innovative and experimental cask refinements. Awamori is traditionally made from long-grain indica rice and stored in clay containers. Japanese spirits are said to have been made in the same way for over 500 years. Only a small percentage of Awamori is matured in oak barrels, making it very rare.
