Glenfarclas 53 Year Old Whisky

An incredibly limited release from highland distillery, Glenfarclas. With only 168 bottles in existence Glenfarclas 53 year old single malt is a real step back in time.

Bottling took place just before the Angels took their full share. This limited edition Glenfarclas is in a bespoke Glencairn Crystal decanter and wooden presentation box.

This single cask whisky from Glenfarclas has been ageing for 53 years in a first fill oloroso sherry cask. The colour, flavours and aromas provide a snapshot of the time that this cask was laid. Only 168 decanters are available. 

We are offering you the opportunity to purchase a whisky from this famous period for both Glenfarclas and single malt whisky.

  • Rich aromas of treacle toffee, Christmas cake and oloroso sherry fill the nose
  • Complementing the aromas are notes of dried fruit, sweet malt, dark chocolate, coffee, tobacco, treacle and smoke on the palate

The distinctive, some say unforgettable, taste of their Highland single malt Scotch whisky is the result of the family's experience over 150 years. Their insistence on using traditional distillation methods gives their spirit that time-honoured quality.

Glanfarclas, from the Gaelic 'Valley of the Green Grassland', nestles at the foot of Ben Rinne. Far on its heather slopes, fed by melting snows of winter, crystal clear spring water bubbles up from the granite.

Family owned steeped in tradition

In 1865, Glenfarclas distillery, nestled in the heart of Speyside, was purchased by a cattle breeder by the name of John Grant. Today, the Glenfarclas spirit still lives strong and continues in family ownership under the direction of 5th generation owner, John Grant.

Glenfarclas means ‘Valley of the Green Grassland’ and the spring water, which ensures the verdant green grass, is essential to the distinct flavour of Glenfarclas Highland Single Malt Whisky. It bubbles up, crystal clear, from the underlying granite on the slopes of the Speyside mountain, Ben Rinnes, to supply the distillery below.

There it is combined with the finest malted barley, twice distilled in traditional, direct fired, copper pot stills and only the lightest and best fractions of alcohol are collected to be filled into the finest Spanish Sherry oak casks and lie maturing over many years.

Times may have changed, but it’s what has stayed the same that makes Glenfarclas unique: the six generations of Grant family pride and the revered quality of their famous Single Malt Whisky.
