- Description
- An early 1970s bottling of the 15-year-old expression in the rectangular bottle of that period, at 45% ABV. This long-matured spirit would have developed considerable depth from its extended time in sherry cask. A historic example of Glenfarclas's core offering from the distillery's golden age of vintage bottlings.
