Glenfarclas 21 years old Highland Malt

In 1836 tenant farmer Robert Hay was granted a licence to produce whisky at the Glenfarclas Distillery. After his death, John Grant, a prominent cattle breeder looking for an ideal halfway staging post between his farm and market, took an interest in the abandoned distillery and property, and so began the Grant family whisky legacy.  By 1912 Glenfarclas’ reputation was well-established; even a competitor said, “of all the whiskies, malt is king, of all the kings, Glenfarclas reigns supreme”—a sentiment the family still holds close to their hearts.  The Grant family tradition continues today with the fifth generation, John L S Grant, now Chairing and his son, George, Glenfarclas’ Brand Ambassador.  The Glenfarclas 21 year old: Intense, well-developed nose, more tropical fruits, candied peel and some cedar and tobacco notes. Instantly full-bodied with big fruit and sherry flavours, the oak always present ; it finishes well with a distinctive sweet touch.
