🏎️🥃 Glenfiddich x Aston Martin – is the whisky as good as

https://youtu.be/p3xtiupbfYY

Glenfiddich has teamed up with the Aston Martin Formula One Team for its second limited-edition release, this time a 16 Year Old single malt matured across five different cask types.

With a collaboration like this, it would be easy to assume you’re paying a sizeable premium for the Aston Martin name. But at an Australian RRP of $170, the price actually surprised me.

So, what’s it like in the glass – and is it worth the money?

I’ve put the Glenfiddich x Aston Martin 16 Year Old Edition 2 through a full tasting to find out.

Whisky Wednesday is a thing! On the first Wednesday of every month, the fine guys from QLD Malt Whisky Society host an educational and tasty night of unique whisky varieties 🥃

For August, we sampled a range of “Glens”, from rare, sold out vault releases to rich, wine finished gems. The lineup showcased the incredible depth of traditional Scottish distilling. Here’s what we sipped:

🥃 Glen Moray Shiraz Finish - Sweet orchard fruits meet rich, spicy Australian red wine casks.
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Glenglassaugh Revival - A coastal single malt packed with sea air, sherry notes, and ripe plums.
🥃 Glenturret 12 Year Old (2022 Release) - A rare, sold-out masterpiece featuring heavy oak and sweet ginger cake (my fave!)
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Glenfarclas Club Exclusive - A bespoke, sherried powerhouse bottled specially for QMWS members.
🥃 Glenfiddich 15 Year Old (Perpetual Collection) - Complex, non-stop finish created using a continuously filled Solera vat.

Most people know Switzerland for chocolate, watches and the Alps... but whisky?

And what about Liechtenstein? Did you even know they make whisky?

I put these two tiny neighbouring countries head-to-head.

Switzerland is represented by Seven Seals' Sherry Wood Finish, while Liechtenstein enters the ring with a mystery single malt from Telser Distillery. It seemed fitting, since these two countries never got the chance to face each other at the World Cup!

One whisky was a classic, well-balanced sherry-matured dram. The other... let's just say there was a very clear winner.

Have you ever tried whisky from either Switzerland or Liechtenstein? I'd love to hear what you thought!
