Glenfiddich and Aston Martin Formula One Team have launched a limited-edition single malt scotch whisky to celebrate their enduring partnership. The collaboration brings together two brands known for precision engineering and traditional craftsmanship.
The new release hit shelves in September 2025 with a retail price of $75.00. The 16-year-old expression comes from a marriage of American oak wine casks, new American barrels, and second-fill bourbon casks. Bottled at 43% alcohol by volume, the whisky features official tasting notes of maple syrup and caramelized ginger on the nose, with fresh fruit salad and sweet cream on the palate.
