Together with his large family (seven sons and two daughters), Grant began construction of a new distillery in 1886, which was completed by Christmas 1887.

Accordingly, a deer was depicted on the logo. By the way, this word is not read correctly as "glenfiddich", but how "glenfiddich". More than a hundred years have passed since then, but the distillery Glenfiddich Distillery still owned by the Grant family.

Contrary to the habit that has spread in some circles to pronounce the name of this drink with a “k”, that is, as “Glenfiddich”, the correct option is still “Glenfiddich”.
