Glenfiddich 16 Years Aston Martin Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml 40.0%

Glenfiddich 16 Years Aston Martin Edition 700ml 40.0% – The High-Performance Speyside Single Malt

Experience the thrilling intersection of Scottish whisky mastery and cutting-edge automotive engineering with the Glenfiddich 16 Years Aston Martin Edition. Forged through a prestigious collaboration with the Aston Martin Formula One Team, this exclusive release redefines the boundaries of traditional distillation. To create a spirit that matches the innovation of the racetrack, Glenfiddich’s Malt Master selected a unique, all-American cask maturation process—aging the whisky for 16 years in a combination of virgin American oak, first-fill ex-bourbon, and American red wine barrels. Presented in a bespoke 700ml Collector's Bottle, it is a statement piece for both motorsport enthusiasts and whisky connoisseurs.

Bottled at 40.0% ABV, this dynamic Speyside single malt delivers an incredibly smooth, syrupy mouthfeel bursting with vibrant fruit and oak character. The influence of the American red wine barrels adds a stunning layer of candied berries that perfectly complements Glenfiddich’s signature orchard fruit profile. Whether you are celebrating a monumental victory, adding to a rare whisky collection, or gifting a fan of high-octane luxury, this Aston Martin Edition ensures a world-class tasting experience from the starting grid to the final finish.

Serving Suggestions

To fully appreciate the influence of the red wine and virgin oak casks, serve this special edition neat at room temperature in a Glencairn glass. Allow it to rest for a few minutes before tasting to let the candied berry aromas fully develop. If desired, a single drop of water can help release further notes of tropical pineapple and pine. This dynamic malt pairs wonderfully with rich, savory dishes like smoked duck breast, as well as indulgent desserts such as a dark chocolate and raspberry tart.
