- Description
- Glenfarclas's Family Casks series resurrects vintage casks from one of Speyside's finest distilleries, with this 1958 expression matured in first-fill sherry wood at natural cask strength. Decades in sherry influence this whisky toward rich dried fruit, warming spice, and deep oak character, with the high alcohol adding intensity and grip. The texture is full-bodied and warming, with a long, complex finish. A collector's piece for those seeking authentic, uncompromised single-cask Speyside.
