40 Year Old Warehouse Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
Famed distillery Glenfarclas is renowned for maturing their premium single malts in two distinct styles of oak casks - plain oak barrels previously containing bourbon or Scotch and superior Spanish oak barrels used to house Oloroso or Fino sherry from Seville. Glenfarclas 40 year old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is rested in the latter, showcasing the richness of sherry-seasoned casks to a finite degree and well-balanced depth. Older bottlings of this vintage (bottled in 2010) feature a higher proof, while selections bottled at 43% ABV (96-proof) were bottled later - around 2015. An adored expression by Glenfarclas fans and collectors alike, expect a nose pilfered with hints of chocolate, raisins, oak, and rancio over a palate of holiday spice, smoke, and chocolate-coated oranges. Glenfarclas 40 Year Single Malt is a legendary dram from an equally legendary distiller!

About the brand
Glenfarclas is a brand of single Highland malt whisky distilled in the Speyside region of Scotland. At the helm of this prestigious line of superior Scotch whiskies is the 6th generation of the Grant family, decedents of John Grant - a family who has distilled and crafted Glenfarclas since 1865. The Glenfarclas distillery was legally established in 1836 on the Recherlich Farm and is located in the town of Ballindalloch, Scotland. The Grants were originally cattle breeders who lent the distillery site under a tenancy agreement to John Smith, founder of the renowned Cragganmore distillery. Glenfarclas now produces roughly 3.5 million liters of distillates per year and operates 6 giant stills, the largest stills in all of Scotland. Only the finest ingredients are used for the brand's methodical distillation processes. This paired with the unique size and shape of the copper pot stills, specially selected oak casks, and the style and location of the warehouses have shaped Glenfarclas into the world-class whisky brand it is today. Profound and beloved all across the world for its award-winning iterations, Glenfarclas is cited in a quote by a rival distiller from May of 1912 which still rings true today; “ ... of all the whiskies, malt is king, of all the kings, Glenfarclas reigns supreme”.

Unbelieve dram. Give this a little time in the glass and add a drop or two of water and this really opens up.

Try not to concur that the more youthful ones are better. A dash of water and this is warm mind boggling and smooth. Unquestionably worth the cash. To my taste obviously better then the HP18 or Macallan 21 which get a higher score on this site
