Unlock a mid-century treasure with Glenfarclas 1959 – “Family Casks” Release W15 (Winter 2015).
Filled on 23 April 1959 into a lone sherry-seasoned hogshead (#1822) and left undisturbed in the Grant family dunnage for over five decades, this venerable Speyside malt was drawn at natural cask strength in August 2015. Bottled non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 127 individually numbered bottles reveal an opulent tapestry of dark-fruit preserve, polished mahogany and rancio-laced spice—Glenfarclas sherry grandeur at its rarest.
