Tasting Notes

Nose: Opulent fig preserve, raisin syrup and orange‐peel marmalade drift over beeswax-polished oak, walnut shell and a hint of espresso crema. Palate: Velvet waves of treacle toffee, dark-chocolate truffle and sweet malt coat the tongue, followed by clove-spiked caramel, roasted hazelnut and a bright flash of candied citrus. Finish: Long, warming and elegantly dry—lingering sherry-soaked fruitcake, supple oak tannin and a final flourish of vanilla-malt sweetness.
Celebrate deep-aged Speyside splendour with Glenfarclas 32 Year Old – 1989 “Family Casks” Release (bottled July 2022). Filled into Sherry Butt #13031 on 31 May 1989 and drawn at natural cask strength more than three decades later, this venerable malt embodies the Grant family’s unwavering dedication to sherry-cask maturation. Non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 602 numbered bottles emerged—showcasing Glenfarclas’ honey-malt heart enveloped in sumptuous layers of dark fruit, polished mahogany, and warming oak spice.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

  • Single-cask pedigree: full-term maturation in a first-class sherry butt yields unrivalled dried-fruit depth, chocolate richness and refined spice.

  • 32 years of dunnage-warehouse slumber transform Glenfarclas’ orchard-fruit elegance into polished, mahogany complexity.

  • Bottled at natural cask strength, non-chill-filtered and natural colour—preserving full body, aroma and authentic ruby hue.

  • Part of the famed “Family Casks” series—Grant family-curated single casks released only in limited numbers.

  • Strictly 602 bottles—a crown-jewel for collectors and sherried-malt connoisseurs seeking an unforgettable Speyside masterpiece.

Raise a glass to Glenfarclas heritage with this distinguished 32-year-old—where honeyed malt, opulent Oloroso richness and time-honed elegance converge in every luxurious sip.
