London, 1st November 2023: As we approach the Lunar New Year on 10th February 2024, Glenfiddich has collaborated with internationally acclaimed artist Raku Inoue to create a collection of limited-edition gifts. Raku personifies the spirit of Glenfiddich, and he was inspired by the great outdoors when designing the extraordinary sets. Glenfiddich invites you to raise a glass with family and friends this Lunar New Year.
Born in Japan and based in Canada, Raku’s artistic journey led to his mastery of drawing, handcrafting, and photography. This understanding of image composition has more recently developed his love of working with organic materials – including flowers, leaves, and numerous flora species.
Raku has applied his signature style to bring to life the Glenfiddich Lunar New Year limited editions, uniting the iconic Glenfiddich Stag with the magnificent Wood Dragon through his masterful lens. A legendary creature, Wood Dragons are born leaders, their spirits reminiscent of the Glenfiddich pioneers. As a native Earth element, wood personifies growth and the flowering of new life. In homage to this mythical creature, this year the Glenfiddich Stag has been inspired by the Wood Dragon – from the leaves of the forest, symbolizing an auspicious future in full bloom ahead.
Raku Inoue comments: “Lunar New Year represents growth and renewal, and what better symbol than nature. My aim was to take you on a journey to the great outdoors, harnessing some of the most magnificent elements. Fu Lu, the Glenfiddich Stag, is formed and crafted petal by petal, element by element from natural materials and fitting to this auspicious moment in time.”
The limited-edition series is led by the Glenfiddich Reserva Rum Cask 21-Year-Old pack and spans the core range of 12, 15, and 18-year-old variants, which come as gift packs containing a bottle and whisky-nosing glasses.

Creator of the malt category and the world’s most awarded single malt Scotch, Glenfiddich challenges the norms to create authentic and superior quality whiskies. The multiple “Double Gold” award-winning Reserva Rum Cask 21, included in A Gift for Blossoming Futures, is an aged whisky finished in Caribbean rum-soaked casks where spicy warmth and indulgent vanilla and toffee sweet notes develop over time.
About Glenfiddich:
Founded in Dufftown, Scotland by innovator William Grant, Glenfiddich first ran from the stills on Christmas Day, 1887. Adopting revolutionary methods and practices, Grant’s maverick attitude to Whisky production saw Glenfiddich excel for over a hundred and thirty years, becoming the first single malt Scotch Whisky to be promoted outside of Scotland, and ultimately, the best-selling and most awarded Single Malt Scotch whisky in the world. While Glenfiddich is now sold in over 180 countries across the world, the brand is one of the few single malt distilleries to remain entirely family-owned and is still produced in the same distillery that William Grant and his family hand-built.
