I boarded the Cinderella Cruise Ship from Stockholm to the Aland islands this January. As we sailed past dramatic Finnish coastlines, excitement built and Whisky Fair enthusiasts gathered to enjoy some beautiful whiskies. Including two of our newest launches, our Glenfiddich 125th Anniversary Edition and 19 Year Old Age of Discovery Red Wine Finish. I was thrilled to be introducing the new variants and guiding people through the nosing and tasting of each. And we ran fully-booked-out Masterclasses featuring many famous Glenfiddich variants.

The last of the three cruises was particularly lively and there were a few familiar faces aboard. So we all joined together in a wee song, accompanied by a Glenfiddich 15 Year Old Solera. One full of tune as you can imagine!

A fantastic trip and one I'm greatly looking forward to again next year.
