- Description
- This early 1960s 10-year-old from Glenfarclas, imported to San Francisco by Esquin Imports, represents post-war Speyside bottling at 43.4% ABV with period-correct secure cap closure. The spirit likely carries the distillery's classical malty, slightly fruited profile unburdened by the heavy sherry cask emphasis of later decades. A rare snapshot of Glenfarclas' foundational house style.
