GLENFIDDICH
1936 PETER J. RUSSELL
80 PROOF | 26 2/3 FL OZ
This is a spectacular example of one of Glenfiddich’s
early single malts, bottled especially for Peter J.
Russell & Co in Edinburgh.
Bottled in 1969, with brand protection in full swing
due to a wider promotional push, the distillery did
not provide these to the Edinburgh firm in the
trademark triangular glass introduced earlier in the
decade. Rather the presentation is reminiscent of the
former style, with heavy metal capped stopper and
foil capsule.
Pre-war vintages in single malt are exceptionally
rare, particularly from distilleries like Glenfiddich.
This is a real opportunity to own a true piece of
whisky history.
