Tasting Notes

Nose: Warm raisin brioche, heather honey and orange zest rise above beeswax-polished oak, walnut skin and a hint of mocha. Palate: Silky waves of treacle toffee, malt loaf and dark-chocolate truffle coat the tongue, followed by clove-spiked caramel, roasted hazelnut and a bright flash of candied citrus. Finish: Long, warming and gently dry—lingering sherry-soaked fruitcake, supple oak tannin and a final flourish of vanilla-malt sweetness.
Savour the sweet spot of mature Glenfarclas with Glenfarclas 21 Year Old – 2002 “Family Casks” S24 (Summer 2024 Release). Laid down on 4 September 2002 in a single Sherry Hogshead #3327 and bottled at natural cask strength for the Summer 2024 parcel, this Speyside gem spent over two decades soaking up rich Oloroso character in the Grant family’s cool dunnage warehouses. Non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 301 bottles reveal a perfect balance of orchard-fruit elegance, nutty sherry depth and polished oak spice.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

  • Single-cask pedigree: full-term maturation in a sherry hogshead delivers decadent dried-fruit depth, chocolate richness and refined spice.

  • 21 years strike the ideal harmony between Glenfarclas’s orchard-fruit core and luxurious sherry complexity.

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

  • Part of the collectible “Family Casks” series—curated by the Grant family and released only in limited seasonal parcels.

  • Strictly 301 bottles, making it a prized find for collectors and sherried-malt aficionados seeking an unforgettable Speyside masterpiece.

Pour a measure of this distinguished Glenfarclas and savour an opulent union of honeyed fruit, Oloroso richness and time-honed elegance—an extraordinary dram that lingers long after the final sip.
