Description

Glenfarclas 70 Years Old 1953 is an exceptionally rare single malt, the oldest ever released by the distillery. Distilled on 20 November 1953, it matured for seven decades in first-fill sherry casks in Glenfarclas' traditional dunnage warehouses, overseen by six different distillery managers. This extraordinary whisky, part of the Warehouse Series, represents more than seven decades of craftsmanship, patience, and tradition. Only 262 bottles were released globally in 2025, making it a true collector's gem. It is bottled at 42.9% ABV, non-chill filtered, and with no added coloring.

Nose
Soft and smooth, with gentle tannic undertones. Opens with aromas of stewed fruits and traditional Scottish dumpling, with a delicate thread of Speyside peat from Ben Rinnes. The sweetness deepens, revealing layers of fruit compote, honeyed malt, and a quiet richness.
Palate
Dark chocolate laced with sherry-soaked dried fruits gives way to a refreshingly spicy tingle, leading to a bold thread of rich, roasted coffee. The mouthfeel is luxuriously coated in treacle toffee, creating a full-bodied, indulgent texture.
Finish
Long, evolving, and profoundly satisfying. The finish lingers and effortlessly clings to the roof of the mouth. Delicate peat resurfaces, rolling gently across the tongue with a green, grassy echo of Speyside origins.
