- Description
- Distilled in 1982 and aged 35 years in a single refill hogshead, this Glenfarclas showcases the distillery's signature character without heavy sherry influence. The palate unfolds with concentrated orchard fruit, citrus peel, and hints of tropical spice layered over a stony minerality. At 52.4% ABV, this is a contemplative dram for those seeking the refined evolution of Speyside whisky over decades.
