For this bottling, the team at Glenfarclas selected some excellent casks to showcase their sherried, full flavoured style.

As you savor each sip, the velvety smoothness of toffee caresses your palate, leaving a lingering sweetness that will leave you yearning for more.Historical Significance: Bottles linked to notable events or personalities may appreciate in value. Mouth: richer now, slightly spicier and not as light as the ABV suggests. It’s close to some of these undisclosed Speyside malts of late – still hardly any young notes. Oranges, damsons, stewed berries, even a hint of passion fruit. Hints of herbal tea, candied ginger, cinnamon and a little furniture wax. Now more nutty hints and a wee touch of chocolate as well. The price of a Glenfarclas whisky is swayed by market demand and supply, influenced by numerous factors including rarity, age, branding, economic conditions, and consumer preferences, all of which are unpredictable. Even in the near future, market behavior can be capricious.

From Master of MaltWhat sets Glenfarclas apart is its status as one of the few remaining family-owned distilleries in Scotland. For over 180 years, the Grant family has meticulously overseen every aspect of production, ensuring that the distillery's heritage and expertise are passed down through generations. This dedication is palpable in every drop of Glenfarclas whisky. Brand Prestige: Renowned brands or producers usually hold a higher esteem in the collector's realm.

The Glenfarclas distillery is one of the last ‘family’ distilleries in Speyside. Glenfarclas was licensed in 1836 by farm tenant Robert Hay. In 1865 Glenfarclas was obtained from Robert Hay’s executors by John Grant and the operation has continued to operate under that very same name until the present day.
