Speaking during the event, the Prestige On-Trade Manager – East Africa Mr Kariuki Mukii noted that the visit of the global brand ambassador is geared towards entrenching “our footprint in the luxury alcohol market.”

“My visit to Kenya is aimed at introducing many Kenyans to the wonders of the Scottish whisky and this is also exciting to see the uptake of our brand that is attractive because of the high quality and standards that resonate with the consumers taste and culture,” said Mr Struan.

Glenfiddich is a product of the William Grant & Sons, a global family business that will be turning 130 years on Christmas day.
