Description

Glenfarclas Aged 17 Years Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Volume: 700ml          ABV: 43%          Age: 17 Years Old         Country: Scotland

The Glenfarclas distillery is famous for its Sherry-influenced expressions and there’s not an expression more known that the Glenfarclas Aged 15 Years Single Malt. It is matured in 60% ex-Sherry casks and 40% ex-Bourbon casks. The maturation in the Bourbon casks are slightly different to the normal maturation guidelines. Before using the casks they are shaved back slightly. This allows the whisky to gain more flavour influence from the Sherry casks, resulting in a richer, fruitier whisky. Many whisky enthusiasts and writers consider this single malt whisky to be amongst some of the best in the world.

The 17 Year Old expression has been launched for the travel market, and is a deep, richly sherried whisky bottled at 43% ABV
