This represents two firsts for Glenfiddich as 'Age Of Discovery' is the brand's first 19-year-old release and also the first finished in ex-Madeira wine casks. The Portuguese influence stretches to the name, inspired by 15th Century Portuguese explorers who discovered Porto Santo and Madeira.

To quote the brand's own description of packaging: "The black glass bottle is embellished with a red cartouche compass and encased in an outer display box, adorned with creative illustrations, mapping out the travels of Portuguese explorers."
