Glenfarclas 1953 Single Cask #1682

Still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside’s independent whisky producers. The Grant family has been running Glenfarclas since 1860, producing an individual Speyside malt that many whisky enthusiasts number as one of their favourites. The water source is melt water from the slopes of Ben Rinnes which runs through granite and heather before reaching Glenfarclas (meaning ‘the valley of green grass’). With a long history of bottlings stretching back to the early 20th Century, both proprietary and independent bottlings are much sought after.

A magnificent single cask bottling, distilled in the early 1950’s, which yielded a minute number of bottles. This bottle has been signed by George Grant.
