Glenfiddich, the world’s most awarded single malt Scotch whisky, has officially launched its multi-year global partnership with the Aston Martin Formula One® Team in South Africa. This union of two heritage brands marks a bold celebration of excellence, innovation, and craftsmanship, now brought to life for South African whisky enthusiasts and F1 fans alike.
The campaign, under the global banner “Timeless Apart. Iconic Together,” brings Glenfiddich’s legacy of whisky-making mastery together with Aston Martin’s engineering precision, creating a powerful new expression of luxury that transcends borders.
“This partnership between Glenfiddich and the Aston Martin Formula One® Team is rooted in a shared passion for excellence and innovation,” says Søren Hagh, CEO of William Grant & Sons. “Glenfiddich’s whisky-making heritage meets Aston Martin’s iconic presence in motorsport, creating a timeless yet forward-thinking partnership. Together, we’re inspiring a global audience, inviting them to experience a legacy built on dedication and mastery.”
To honour this historic partnership in South Africa, this moment will be marked with an immersive lifestyle experience, Club 1959, a tribute to Aston Martin’s debut in Formula One brought to life at Daytona in Johannesburg this October, celebrating the spirit of craftsmanship, engineering, and elevated living.
In addition, Glenfiddich will release a limited-edition 16-Year-Old single malt, inspired by the spirit of Formula One which will be made available in leading retail stores at a recommend selling price of R1699.99 while stocks last, the bottling offers fans a collectible piece of this iconic partnership.
Throughout the coming months in South Africa, Glenfiddich will host a series of exclusive events, including a premium F1-themed experience and the launch of Club 1959, a high-touch celebration of engineering, elegance, and exceptional whisky, designed to immerse guests in the world of Glenfiddich and Aston Martin.
