Description

One of the oldest distilleries within Speyside, and still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside's independent whisky producers. The Grant family has been running Glenfarclas since 1860, producing an individual Speyside malt that many whisky enthusiasts number as one of their favourites. With its Direct-fired Stills, and melt water from the slopes of Ben Rinnes, Glenfarclas is known for its heavy single malts almost exclusively matured in Jerez sherry casks. This particular release is a single cask bottling from 1990, bottled in Winter 2019.
