- Description
- Glenfarclas's 1966 vintage distilled spirit aged for over three decades in sherry cask before bottling in 1997, bottled at 46% ABV. The extended maturation would have created a deeply integrated sherry influence, with layers of oxidative development building over the years. A significant rarity that captures the distillery's character at full maturity.
