- Description
- A 1963 vintage from Glenfarclas's 10th Family Casks release, aged in sherry hogshead #176 and bottled in 2012 at 46.5% ABV. Nearly 50 years in sherry cask has built substantial fruit character—dark dried fruits, raisins, and rich sherry influence dominate the profile. The texture remains warm and rounded despite the extended aging. This cask-specific bottling suits collectors focused on Glenfarclas's sherry-matured heritage and those exploring how individual casks express the distillery's character.
