This constant can be thought of as A003266(1/2).
The fibonorial of (not necessarily an integer) x is defined as x!_F = (phi^(x*(x+1)/2) / F(x+1)) * Product_{n=1..inf} F(n+1)^(x+1)/(F(n)^x * F(x+n+1)), where F(x) = (phi^x - cos(Pi*x)/phi^x)/sqrt(5), where phi = (1+sqrt(5))/2 is the golden ratio. It satisfies the recurrence 0!_F = 1, x!_F = (x-1)!_F * F(x), and agrees with A003266(x) at integer points.
