Glenfiddich Whisky: History, Range, and Philosophy

Whisky.dk ai Podcast – Glenfiddich: A Living Legend in the World of Single Malt

In this episode, we take you to the heart of Speyside, where Glenfiddich has been distilling whisky since 1887. Founded by William Grant and still family-owned to this day, Glenfiddich is more than just a distillery – it’s a pioneer that has shaped the entire whisky world.

We dive into the story of how Glenfiddich took the bold step in 1963 to introduce single malt whisky to the world beyond Scotland – a move that changed everything. You’ll gain insight into how the distillery has survived crises, Prohibition, and global competition, and still stands as a beacon of quality and tradition.

We taste our way through their core range: the fresh and fruity 12 Year Old, the spicy 14 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve, the complex 15 Year Old Solera, and the elegant 18 Year Old Small Batch Reserve. Each whisky has its own story, its own maturation, and its own flavor profile – and we guide you through them all.

Finally, we explore Glenfiddich’s philosophy: how they combine classic craftsmanship with curious innovation in their Experimental Series, where IPA casks, rum finishes, and ice wine meet Speyside roots.

So pour yourself a dram, sit back, and tune in – this is the story of a whisky that has set the standard for over 130 years.
