product Details

Glenfarclas 1972 Single Cask 29 Year Old / Craigellachie Hotel Exclusive

Glenfarclas is considered by many to be one of the finest distilleries in Speyside. Its direct-fired stills produce a heavy single malt that is almost exclusively matured in Jerez sherry casks. The distillery focuses on single malt over blends, and a cool microclimate around the distillery that means that their casks are particularly stingy to the "angels," resulting in an incredible depth of stock. Glenfarclas also feel they share some credit for the modern day love of cask strength whisky, introducing their acclaimed 105 proof expressions back in 1968.

An exclusive release, this was bottled on 7th December 2001 for the Craigellachie Hotel. Distilled on 30th May 1972 and matured in cask #3540, this is bottle number 277 of 602.
