Glenfiddich Launches an Unforgettable Fine Dining and Bar Experience for Three Nights Only
This November, whisky aficionados and food enthusiasts are invited to indulge in an unparalleled fine dining experience in Westcliff, Johannesburg as Glenfiddich introduces its limited-edition Grand Château 31-Year-Old single malt Scotch whisky to South Africa.
Taking place at the prestigious five-star venue, The Four Seasons Hotel at The Westcliff, the three-day immersive experience promises an exquisite fusion of French flair and Scottish mastery, showcasing the spirit of luxury and craftsmanship that Glenfiddich is known for.
With a limited number of bottles of the Grand Château 31-Year-Old available at a price of R40,000, this iconic whisky encapsulates Glenfiddich’s innovative heritage and dedication to luxury. Each bottle represents the meticulous care and time-honoured tradition of whisky making, making it a coveted collector’s item for discerning whisky connoisseurs.
To celebrate this memorable launch, the fine dining experience will bring together the best of both worlds – a fusion of French culinary artistry and Scottish whisky excellence under the guidance of the multiple award-winning, internationally trained, Chef Katlego Mlambo. He will take guests on a culinary journey, paired with expertly crafted cocktails, adding an exciting modern twist to the evening’s menu.
“I look forward to welcoming our guests to savour the creations on their plates while sipping on Glenfiddich, evoking a moment of culinary revelation. I am looking forward to embracing the maverick spirit to bring this experience to life.”
Mlambo adds
“The Grand Château 31-Year-Old is an expression of Glenfiddich’s commitment to pushing boundaries and reimagining luxury whisky experiences and serves as the inspiration behind this exclusive experience. We wanted to launch this whisky in a way that reflects our passion for craftsmanship, luxury, and innovation, and what better way to do that than with a spectacular dining experience that fuses cultures and celebrates the very best in taste and design.”
says Lifa Bakana, Senior Brand Manager at Edward Snell & Co
“The fine dining experience will be hosted in the five-star restaurant at the Four Seasons which oozes luxury, providing a sophisticated backdrop for this three-day affair. With only 90 seats available each night, the exclusive dining experience will cater to a select few, so don’t wait to book your seat.”
he adds
In addition to the restaurant, he says that guests can indulge at the start and end of their evening in the luxurious ambient bar area with exquisite views, live DJ’s and mixologists to unite the luxury, exclusivity and grandeur of French culture with the boldness of Scottish heritage.
Bakana explains that the curated experience draws on inspiration from the iconic partnership between Glenfiddich and internationally renowned artist Andre Saraiva who has brought to life his street art style to visualise the Grand Château world onto the limited-edition packaging.
“Everything from the decor, design and food brings together this collision of cultures.”
“The Grand Château 31-Year-Old whisky marks another milestone in Glenfiddich’s Grand Series, which represents the epitome of luxury and innovation in the world of whisky. As the world’s most awarded single malt Scotch whisky, Glenfiddich continues to set the standard for excellence, offering both whisky connoisseurs and food enthusiasts a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the best of Scottish and French cultures.”
