From the moment the cork is pulled, there’s a sense that this dram has stories to tell, of Speyside winters, family run stills, and a style that hasn’t bent to trends.

Customer Reviews
“Sherry done right. It’s rich but still crazy drinkable.” Allan C., Cebu
“A staple on my shelf. I always come back to this.” Derek M., Davao

Interesting Fact
Glenfarclas is one of the last independently owned distilleries in Scotland and one of the few that still heats their stills with direct flame, giving the spirit a unique weight and character.

Serving Suggestions
Neat is ideal. Let it sit a moment to open up, those fig and spice notes deepen with air. Add a few drops of water to soften the oak and bring out more of the dried fruit and nutty sweetness.

Distillery Background
Set in the heart of Speyside, Glenfarclas has been family run for six generations. “Glenfarclas” means “valley of the green grass,” and their distillery, surrounded by lush hills and crisp mountain air, reflects that serenity. They focus on consistency, heritage, and letting the whisky speak for itself and the 12 Year Old does just that, flawlessly.
