Fifteen years in bespoke Matusalem, Apostoles and Amoroso sherry butts from Jerez de la Frontera have been elemental in influencing this malt.

An independent distillery, the Grant family have owned Glenfarclas since 1860 producing whisky that many enthusiasts embrace as a personal favourite. What this popular 15 year old lacks in subtlety it more than makes up in its power and flavour, leading to high ratings and awards.
