Glenfiddich
Millennium Vintage, a UK travel
retail exclusive Glenfiddich vintage to
celebrate 2012.
The Glenfiddich Millennium Vintage
Limited Edition single malt whisky is
the latest exclusive from Glenfiddich.
This premium whisky was laid down at the
Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown
during the Millennium celebrations in
2000, and bottled in 2012 from casks
personally hand selected by Brian
Kinsman, the Glenfiddich Malt Master.
After maturing for 12 years in European
and American oak casks, this single
vatting has been exclusively finished in
bourbon barrels for two months to layer
in extra flavours of intense vanilla and
rich fruit. The whisky was
distilled and placed into casks during
the Millennium celebrations of 2000 and
bottled in 2012 from casks hand selected
by Brian Kinsman, the Glenfiddich Malt
Master.
This new vintage was unveiled in the World Duty Free
stores at London Heathrow last Friday
July 13 where it is exclusively
available for 12 days. On July 25, the
limited edition whisky will then be
rolled out to all World Duty Free stores
across the UK, priced £39.99.
This exciting and unique launch is being
extensively supported by both World Duty
Free Group and BAA with digital and
social media promotion and extensive
advertising and high profile sampling
activations at Heathrow, Glasgow and
Aberdeen airports.
Says Alex Warren, WGS Business
Development Manager who manages the
World Duty Free Group account; “2012 is
a truly remarkable year for the UK. It
is a wonderful opportunity for
celebration and collaboration and we are
thrilled to be working exclusively with
World Duty Free Group and BAA, to
present such an exciting new collectable
Glenfiddich to passengers coming to the
UK this summer.”
David de Miguel, Global Head of Liquor
at World Duty Free Group comments, “We

edition Glenfiddich Millennium Vintage

great relevance and synergy with our
