Unearth a gem from the Grant family archives with Glenfarclas 1959 – “Family Casks” Release S14 (Summer 2014).
Filled on 9 January 1959 into a solitary sherry-seasoned hogshead (#1821) and left undisturbed for well over half a century in Glenfarclas’s cool stone dunnage, this venerable Speyside malt was drawn at natural cask strength in March 2014. Bottled non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 121 individually numbered bottles preserve an opulent collage of dark fruit, polished mahogany and rancio-tinged spice—an era-defining dram from one of Scotch whisky’s most storied families.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

• Single-cask pedigree: full-term maturation in a sherry hogshead saturates the spirit with decadent dried-fruit depth, chocolate richness and exotic spice.

• 55 years of slumber transform Glenfarclas’s orchard-fruit core into layers of mahogany sweetness and elegant rancio complexity.

• Bottled at natural cask strength (non-chill-filtered, natural colour) for undiluted body, aroma and a deep antique-ruby hue.

• Part of the coveted “Family Casks” series—Release S14, strictly 121 bottles, a crown jewel for collectors and sherry-malt devotees.

• Exemplifies Glenfarclas’s hallmark balance of dark fruit, polished oak and warming spice at its most luxurious and age-defining.

Pour a measure of this 1959 masterpiece and savour a timeless union of honeyed depth, opulent sherry richness and time-honed elegance—an unforgettable whisky that resonates long after the final sip.
