Glenfarclas 40 Year Old Whisky

J. & G. Grant are delighted to announce the launch of the new Glenfarclas 40 year old single malt Scotch whisky. This single malt highlights the beginning of a new era as Glenfarclas now marks 180 years of production since its establishment in 1836.

This expression is in bespoke packaging. A red wooden box recreating the iconic Glenfarclas warehouse doors inside a classic grey tertiary box. The red doors include a glossy metallic 40 years old age statement with Glenfarclas Warehouse stencilling. The inside of the box reveals a dark grey interior. Replicating the grey stonework of the Glenfarclas traditional dunnage style warehousing.

  • The Glenfarclas 40 Years Old, now at 43%, has a fresh sweetness and fruity Turkish delight aroma on the nose. Its freshness and power is similar to the first time you open a bag of freshly ground java coffee beans
  • Notes of light heather honey spread liberally over freshly buttered toast reveal a sweet taste, followed by a peppering of caramel and chocolate explosions
  • Sherry power creeping its way to the back of your mouth releases dark chocolate, raisins, and sultanas. It ends with a sweet, crisp, dry and lingering finish

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.
