The Glenfiddich 2024 Archive Collection – 1990 Refill American Oak Barrel is an exceptional expression from one of the world’s most awarded single malt distilleries. At 34 years old, this rare whisky is a tribute to Glenfiddich’s unparalleled craftsmanship, offering a deep and complex profile that is both rich in history and present in texture. Distilled in 1990 and aged in refill American oak barrels, this whisky presents a musky scent of a newly waxed jacket, accompanied by the oily richness of stone fruits, smoke, leather, and savoury notes that reveal the whisky’s incredible maturation process. On the palate, there is a delicious acidic punch of apple skins with sweet dried banana, leading to a dense, complex melange of flavours that coat the mouth, leaving a lavish finish. This limited edition whisky is released naturally, non-chill filtered, and at cask strength, with no added colour, retaining the pure essence of the cask and time.

Glenfiddich, one of the world’s most iconic distilleries, began with a vision nurtured by a single man—William Grant. In 1886, William Grant set out with a dream to create the finest whisky in the valley. With his family by his side, he built Glenfiddich Distillery from the ground up, stone by stone. This ambition led to the creation of one of the most respected distilleries in the world, nestled in the heart of Dufftown in Speyside, Scotland. Today, Glenfiddich is still proudly family-owned and remains at the forefront of the whisky industry, producing the world’s most awarded single malt whisky. Its dedication to craftsmanship and quality is rooted in the pioneering spirit of its founder.

What started as a family endeavour has evolved into a global symbol of excellence. Glenfiddich’s commitment to innovation and quality, passed down through generations, is evident in every bottle. Today, Glenfiddich continues to push the boundaries of whisky-making while staying true to its rich heritage. With a legacy built on William Grant’s pioneering nature, Glenfiddich is not just a distillery—it’s a living testament to a vision that began more than 130 years ago.

At Glenfiddich, the philosophy is simple yet powerful: to craft the world’s finest single malt whisky with an unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. For over a century, the distillery has combined traditional methods with a forward-thinking approach to produce a whisky that is as distinct as it is exceptional. Glenfiddich embraces its rich history, blending time-honoured craftsmanship with a modern outlook, ensuring each bottle reflects the excellence that has been cultivated since 1886.

Glenfiddich’s philosophy extends beyond just making great whisky—it’s about creating an experience.

Musky, Rich Stone Fruits, Oily

Musky scent of a newly waxed jacket, followed by rich, oily stone fruits that give way to smoky, leathery, and savoury undertones. There’s a complexity to the aromatics, with layers that evolve with every breath.

PALATE
Apple Skins, Dried Banana, Savoury

An acidic punch of apple skins, complemented by the sweetness of dried banana. The whisky’s texture is luxurious, with great structure and a savoury quality that balances the fruit-forward flavours. The complexity deepens as the mouthfeel becomes fuller, offering a savoury and smooth experience.

Lavish, Mouth-Coating, Lasting

Long and lavish, with a lasting mouth-coating quality. A complex melange of fruit and savoury notes lingers, leaving a satisfying and refined finish that speaks to the whisky’s 34 years of maturation.
