Glenfarclas 8 Y.o. single malt whisky Vol.40% Cl.70

The Glenfarclas 8 Year Old Highland Single Malt is the youngest bottling from the Glenfarclas distillery.

This young Highland single malt is well balanced with lots of sherry, vanilla and a pleasant sweetness. Despite its young age it is quite pleasant and recommended especially for beginners and whiskey lovers in general.

The Glenfarclas distillery was born in the 1930s in the Scottish Highlands, in the green valley of Speyside, whose property was purchased in 1865 by John Grant and handed down to his descendants, making it, to this day, an independent reality much loved by whiskey fans.

Of Glenfarclas the master Murray's in his famous Whiskey Bible writes: "Glenfarclas is one of the best malts distilled in the highlands, you cannot die before having tasted a Glenfarclas whiskey at least once!"

Glenfarclas comes from Gaelic and translated means "valley of green grass".

The Glenfarclas 8 Year Old is a single malt that spends its intense maturation period in casks previously used for the production of Oloroso Sherry making it wonderfully smooth, yet with the depth of flavor that we would normally expect from an older whisky.
