Presenting a superb addition to Glenfarclas' esteemed range, this 40-year-old gem boasts a straightforward packaging design in line with the distillery's standard bottlings. Bottled at the optimal strength of 46%, this sherried Speyside masterpiece is crafted for enjoyment rather than being confined to a mantlepiece or display cabinet – a commendable approach.

Originally bottled in March 2010 and unveiled at the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival 2010, this Glenfarclas 40 Years Old is both astonishing and offers remarkable value for money. It encapsulates the quintessential sherried Glenfarclas character alongside exceptional maturity. Garnering acclaim, it received an impressive score of 95/100 from the Malt Advocate magazine and earned a well-deserved Gold Medal at the Malt Maniacs Awards 2010.
