Glenfiddich Launches Exclusive 'Perpetual Collection', Available Only at International Duty-Free Outlets
Whisky for the restless - The Glenfiddich Perpetual Collection
The top-shelf single malt whiskey brand Glenfiddich introduces its latest offering, exclusively sold through travel retailers. Dubbed as The Perpetual Collection, the four expressions boast a unique aging process that mirrors the brand's relentless spirit. These spirits, developed using the Solera Vat method, come from vats that have never been drained, with each replacement preserving a piece of the original liquid. The continuous infusion process symbolizes the innovative and dynamic essence that defines Glenfiddich.
The wanderer's whisky - a journey for the globe-trotter
Customers can expect artful packaging for The Perpetual Collection, embodying the constantly moving nature of the Solera process. The packaging showcases captivating 3D, generative art created by Berlin-based A N F studio, offering six diverse visuals to choose from. Travelers will have an opportunity to interact with this artwork and indulge in whiskey tastings at airport pop-up retail spaces.

The distilled dynamism - The Perpetual Collection Expressions

VAT 02 (ABV 43%) - This complex expression has undergone double maturation in oak and Spanish sherry casks, yielding a smooth and intriguing character with a bold finish.
VAT 03 (ABV 50.2% - non-chill filtered) - Aged for 15 years in European oak sherry and ex-bourbon casks, VAT 03 embodies Glenfiddich's pioneering spirit. Its flavor profile features warm spices, nutty marzipan, and dark sherry oak notes.
VAT 04 (ABV 47.8% - non-chill filtered) - Aged for 18 years in Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks, VAT 04 offers a distinctive, deep, and rich aroma of robust oak, ripe orchard fruit, and baked apple.
