Founded in Dufftown, Scotland by innovator William Grant, Glenfiddich® first ran from the stills on Christmas Day, 1887. Adopting revolutionary methods and practises, Grant's pioneering attitude to whisky production saw Glenfiddich® excel for more than 130 years, becoming the first single malt Scotch whisky to be actively promoted outside of Scotland, and ultimately, the best-selling and most-awarded single malt Scotch whisky.

While Glenfiddich® is now sold in more than 180 countries across the world, the brand is one of the few single malt distilleries to remain entirely family-owned and is still produced in the same distillery which William Grant and his family hand-built.
