Tasting notes;
Appearance/colour; Antique Gold.
Nose; Deep earthy aromas of sweet ripe fig and orange marmalade create a backdrop to bright notes –fresh gooseberry and grapes ripening on the vine.
Palate; Rich, spicy cinnamon and crushed black pepper rest on a deep earthy base. Caramelised fruits, crystallised ginger, raisins and hints of dry oak unravel. A satisfying, silky smooth, almost oily texture.
Finish: Dry with warmth that fades into sweet marmalade notes.

Distillery History:

The Glenfarclas Distillery, located in Ballindalloch in the heart of Speyside, Scotland, has a rich history dating back to its establishment in 1836 by Robert Hay. Known for its traditional sherry cask-matured single malt Scotch whiskies, Glenfarclas has remained family-owned for six generations under the Grant family, who purchased the distillery in 1865.

Key Historical Milestones:

1836: Founded by Robert Hay, with its name meaning "valley of the green grass" in Gaelic.
1865: Acquired by John Grant, marking the start of continuous family ownership.
20th Century: The distillery survived two World Wars, Prohibition, and various economic challenges.
1960: One of the first distilleries to market single malts widely, instead of focusing solely on blends.
1973: Opened its Visitor Centre, one of the first in Scotland, showcasing its commitment to tourism and whisky education.

Unique Features:

Glenfarclas is famous for its direct-fired stills, which are increasingly rare in the industry but add a distinct depth to their whisky.
The distillery prides itself on using exclusively sherry-seasoned oak casks, imparting rich, fruity, and nutty flavors.
The Grant family continues to prioritize tradition and independence, maintaining their vision of producing high-quality, classic Speyside whiskies.

Their range includes iconic age-statement whiskies like the 12-, 15-, 21-, and 25-Year-Olds, as well as rare vintage and family cask collections. Glenfarclas stands out as a cornerstone of Scotland’s whisky heritage.
