Representing the height of Glenfiddich’s signature distillery style, this exclusive series comprises 50, 40 and 30-year-old single malt whiskies
Recently launched in Malaysia, the Time Re:Imagined series by Glenfiddich dates back to the 1960s in Speyside, Scotland—a continuation of what malt masters waited so patiently for when developing these rare and precious casks. Boasting rich and smooth flavours that pleasantly linger, the collection comprises single malt whiskies aged for 30, 40 and 50 years that are considered the pinnacle of Glenfiddich’s signature distillery style. Each single malt whisky represents a unique moment in time and is fittingly presented in a bespoke casing that illustrates this concept beautifully.

The rarest whisky in the collection is the 50 Year Old Simultaneous Time. Taking whiskies from three different American Oak refill casks, selected out of thousands, they are first married together before being finished in an American Oak refill cask for two years. There are only 220 decanters of this precious liquid in this release, making it an extremely rare and sought-after collectors’ item.
Boasting decadent notes of rich orange peel and sun-dried vanilla, the 50 Year Old Simultaneous Time is encased in a custom-made outer casing designed by computational architect Manuel Jiménez García, with a shape inspired by recorded meteorological data that affected the making of this whisky.

The 40 Year Old Cumulative Time explores the layers of accumulated flavour captured over time thanks to a process pioneered by Glenfiddich known as remnant vatting. In this process, remnants of the previous batch are carried over each time and married with the casks selected for each subsequent release, resulting in evolving layers of flavours that span over four decades.
The whisky’s sculptural case is also an exceptional work of art, featuring dramatic grooves carved into jesmonite to form asymmetrical intertwining veins that aptly illustrate the maverick spirit of the rare liquid it contains.

The 30 Year Old Suspended Time completes the splendid trio, representing the exact moment when master malter Brian Kinsman suspends the whisky’s maturation, forever capturing and bottling this unique point in its journey. This single malt marries subtle sherry notes with hearty oak and floral accents, housed in a vibrant and artistic case designed with interlocking ribbons to give the decanter inside the illusion of being suspended in mid-air.
A celebration of rarity and craftsmanship defined by different moments in time, Glenfiddich’s Time Re:Imagined series is a one-of-a-kind collectors’ item that is meant to be savoured alongside life’s most extraordinary moments.
