Glenfarclas 1990s 105 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Old Bottle)

1990s Official Bottling. Glenfarclas 105 first announced in 1968 and in the 1970s, the 105 8yo was released. 1990s bottling were still under the full control of John Grant before it was commercialized by George. One of the oldest distilleries within Speyside. Glenfarclas is also one of the few plants to have retained stills which are heated with direct fire, believing that it adds weight to the distillate. A resolute adherence to maturation in ex-Sherry casks helps to produce a whisky which is rich, resonant and capable of extremely long ageing, itself aided by a somewhat cool micro-climate which limits evaporation losses to 0.05% per annum (against an industry average of 2.5). Today, all the wood is sourced from Jerez cooper Miguel Martin and is a mix of butts and hogsheads, all ex-oloroso and made from European oak.
