About this bottle
The term "Glenfiddich Pure Malt" refers to a now-discontinued, vintage bottling of Glenfiddich's whisky from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. At the time of its production, "pure malt" was the standard industry term for what is now known as "single malt" Scotch whisky.
This specific edition celebrates Clan Sinclair. The front of the tin displays a reproduction of the famous 1794–1795 portrait of Sir John Sinclair of Ulbster (Bart) by the renowned artist Sir Henry Raeburn, with the original painting housed in the Scottish National Gallery

About the distillery
The Glenfiddich Distillery was founded in 1886 by William Grant in Dufftown, Scotland, in the glen of the River Fiddich. The Glenfiddich single malt whisky first ran from the stills on Christmas Day, 1887. In the 1920s, with prohibition in force in the US, Glenfiddich was one of a very small number of distilleries to increase production.
