Glenfarclas der ellers fastholder at Oloroso fade er at foretrække har også Fino fade til at ligge. Det er netop sådanne 3 fade fra 1966 der er blevet aftappet som den første i en serie af 6 aftapninger.
Launch af denne aftapning fandt sted på bodegaen hos José y Miguel Martin den 24. september 2014, senere i 2015 bliver flaskerne frigivet i UK.
- Each bottle is packaged in a black leather box bearing a silver coin which features a portrait of John Grant, George’s great, great, great grandfather who purchased the distillery in 1865.
It marks the first in a series of 6 different special releases of Glenfarclas, one for each member of the family.
George Grant, Glenfarclas Sales Director udtaler, “With casks this old, it is sometimes difficult to know their exact history. Fortunately my Grandfather always kept meticulous records, so from his diaries we discovered this small parcel of Fino casks that he had purchased from an Edinburgh broker back in the 1960s.”
