Donald Trump is in a tiff about Glenfiddich sponsoring an award ceremony that honored a Scottish farmer who refused to sell his land to Trump to build a golf course.
In retaliation, Glenfiddich as well as every brand of whiskey sold by William Grant & Sons has been banned from being served at Trump Hotel Collection properties. “Glenfiddich should be ashamed of themselves for granting this award to Forbes, just for the sake of publicity,” Trump told The Guardian.
Michael Forbes’ opposition to the development of Trump International Golf Links prompted his winning of the ‘Top Scot’ award at the Glenfiddich Spirt of Scotland ceremony.
