Product description
An absolutely unique edition of Glenfarclas (60 bottles), this time containing whisky distilled on 7 February 1968 and aged in a Fino dry sherry cask (no. 699) for over four decades.
The cask was selected by Luc Timmermans, a renowned collector of Glenfarclas vintages and special editions. Luc has a particular soft spot for casks filled in 1968, the year of his birth, which coincided with the distillery’s decision to build up stock for future single malt releases. The whisky was bottled in September 2009 at 51% abv to celebrate the first anniversary of www.whiskysamples.eu Originally the owner of the Software Company, Luc was also an independent whisky publisher; his wife Eiling Lim now runs that side of the business.
Unfortunately, we didn't have a chance to taste this whisky, apparently it's an incredibly elegant and perfectly balanced drink, with notes of honey, fresh herbs, raspberries, dried plums and a mixture of spices.
