Glenfarclas Family Cask 2008 (Summer Release 2023)

Produced in Scotland’s Speyside region, Glenfarclas is a family-owned distillery established in 1836 and still operated by the Grant family. Renowned for its dedication to traditional methods and exclusive use of direct-fired stills, Glenfarclas is celebrated for its rich, sherried single malts and consistent craftsmanship across generations.

Wine Description

This single malt presents a deep amber hue, a hallmark of extended maturation in a first-fill sherry butt. On the nose, aromas of dried fruits such as raisins and figs are layered with honey, caramel, and gentle oak spice. The palate is full-bodied and powerful, delivering notes of dark fruits, cinnamon, and ginger, balanced by subtle dryness and white pepper heat.

Food Pairing

This whisky pairs beautifully with rich fare such as roasted lamb, braised short ribs, or dark chocolate truffles. The bold sherry influence highlights savoury depth, while the spice and fruit notes complement sweet finishes.
