Rare Whiskeis at Loch Fyne Whiskies – Scotch Whisky News
This expression represents the third generation of the Grants of Glenfarclas and is the latest addition to this special collector’s series. The Glenfarclas 50 Year Old has been matured in typical Glenfarclas style – predominantly using ex-Oloroso Sherry Casks, producing 937 bottles to be sold worldwide. A non-chill filtered bottling at 41.1%.
The rich, ruby whisky distinguishes this as a classic Macallan, and it is the interaction of spirit and wood which delivers this vibrant colour. It has been crafted only from sherry seasoned Spanish oak casks, which are amongst the most precious and scarce in single malt whisky. The intensity of Rare Cask’s character was developed by The Macallan’s Master Whisky Maker, Bob Dalgemo.
A unique blended malt containing whisky from two closed distilleries, Inverleven and Ladyburn, which were mothballed in 1991 and 1975 respectively. This is the first release of the series from William Grant & Sons, and this particular expression is unrepeatable making it extremely rare.
