Since 1865 Glenfarclas has been owned and managed by just one family, the Grants of Glenfarclas. On the 8th June 1865, John Grant acquired the tenancy for the Rechlerich Farm and as part of the transaction purchased the Glenfarclas Distillery for £511.19S.0d. To this day Glenfarclas is one of only a few distilleries in Scotland to remain family ownedand managed.
Glenfarrclas 105 is a great whisky holding all the flavours of Glenfarclas in one glass. Don’t be afraid of the strength. The Smoothness makes the 105 drinkable at cask strength, but adding a little water helps expore its full depth.
Tasting Note
Colour – Deep peaty gold.
Nose – Complex, Oaky, Apples and Pears & a tempting dark toffee sweetness.
Flavour – Dry and assertive, develops quickly to reveal a rich spiciness, combined with a hint of oak and sherried fruit.
Finish – Amazingly smooth for the strenth, wonderfull warming with a lingering spiciness, yet very rounded.
