Description

Glenfarclas 17 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a distinguished expression from one of Scotland's few remaining family-owned distilleries, established in 1836. Matured for 17 years primarily in Oloroso sherry and ex-bourbon casks, it offers a rich and complex flavor profile. Originally created for travel retail and select markets like the US and Japan, this whisky is known for its balance of sherried sweetness and a subtle hint of peat smoke.
