- Description
- This 1954 vintage, released as part of the Family Casks series, represents one of Glenfarclas' oldest offerings at 52.6% ABV from a sherry cask. Distilled in the post-war era, it captures a moment before modern production methods standardized the distillery's output. The natural strength and refill or first-fill sherry cask maturation suggest a rich, complex spirit with considerable age character. Exclusively for collectors with patience and reverence for whisky's vintage heritage.
