Mr Eazi who also spoke at the event said he was excited to represent the 15-year-old Glenfiddich.

“The middle of everything in your career is when you get to year seven. From year seven, it is like you are starting again and after the first seven, the next seven is 14 and the next time you are starting again is on the 15 and I feel like sometimes, the mark of growth is being able to start afresh.

“So, for me, this just signifies movement and signifies ‘Where Next’. I am affiliated with the brand because of its attention to detail. I visited the distillery where the brand was made and watched the process that goes behind the making of the product, the care and the preciseness. This is what my brand stands for. The Glenfiddich brand aligns with my brand. It doesn’t feel like a campaign. It’s more natural,” he explained.

The event served as a celebration of three Bold Mavericks who embody the essence of freedom and exemplify cultural significance, forward-looking aspirations, and empowering viewpoints which are the reflections of the Glenfiddich brand.
