Glenfarclas - A pioneer in the whisky business
The origins of the Glenfarclas distillery, located in the heart of Speyside, go back to 1836. At that time, Robert Hay founded the whisky distillery near the popular tourist Ballindalloch Castle. In its almost two hundred year history, Glenfarclas has blossomed into a Category 1 whisky. Only the malt whiskies most sought after by blending companies are listed under this category. This good reputation in the spirits industry does not come from nowhere. Glenfarclas has been a pioneer in the whisky business for years. Glenfarclas was one of the first distilleries to bring single malt bottlings of different ages and alcohol content onto the market. Glenfarclas also played a pioneering role in opening a visitor centre for visitors.
Almost 200 years of tradition
After opening in 1836, Robert Hay had to wait another eight years before he was granted a licence to distill whisky. The distillery quickly built up a good reputation, so that businessman John Grant decided to buy it in 1865 for £511.19. The distillery remained in family ownership and is now run by the fifth and sixth generation of Grants. Because the company has always remained family owned, it has been able to bypass many of the rigid organisational structures of the normal spirits industry, which made many of the decisions mentioned possible. According to the Grants, the company's current goal is to continue the high quality of its own whiskies in the classic style of Speyside single malts.
The 105 Cask Strength - A special whisky
The color of deep peat gold is evidence of the power of this whisky. The complex bouquet then reveals notes of oak, pears, caramel and leather. On the palate, aromas of fruity sherry are revealed, which are underlined by a strong spiciness. The powerful aftertaste convinces with a warming, long-lasting smoky note. The cask strength of 60% vol. challenges the whisky connoisseur, which is why the addition of a few drops of water is recommended. The water opens up the whisky, revealing even more of its depth. In the whisky world, the Glenfarclas 105 enjoys a good reputation, particularly because of its price/quality ratio, and is often called "bang for your buck."
