Journey back to the golden era of Speyside with Glenfarclas 46 Year Old – 1966 Vintage, Douglas Laing Director’s Cut. Filled into Sherry Butt #9176 in 1966 and drawn in 2012, this majestic malt spent nearly half a century maturing beneath the pagoda roofs of Glenfarclas. Hand-selected for Douglas Laing’s prestigious Director’s Cut series, only 319 individually-numbered bottles were released at natural cask strength, non-chill-filtered and natural in colour. Decades of patient ageing have woven layers of dark fruit, antique oak and velvety spice into Glenfarclas’s renowned honey-malt core—delivering a dram of incomparable depth and elegance.

Why We Think You’ll Love It:

  • A venerable 46-year Glenfarclas from a single first-fill sherry butt, offering unrivalled depth and sherried sophistication.

  • Bottled for the elite Director’s Cut range—natural cask strength, non-chill-filtered and natural colour for absolute purity.

  • Limited to just 319 bottles, making it a crown-jewel collectible for sherry-malt connoisseurs and whisky historians alike.

  • Captures the essence of long-aged Speyside: opulent dried fruit, polished antique oak, and the timeless charm of the Grant family’s iconic distillery.

Indulge in this stately Glenfarclas for a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with mature sherry richness, classic Speyside malt and nearly five decades of flawless Highlands craftsmanship.
