Description

Glenfarclas 55 Year Old Single Casks 1967 & 1968


A matching pair of crystal decanters filled with Glenfarclas from 1967 and 1968 casks, tastefully housed in a bespoke ash cabinet.


This unique lot is the first time Glenfarclas has combined two exceptional vintages from the sixties in one beautiful set. Both casks are traditional Sherry Butts aged for 55 years but stylistically they are quite different, as can be expected from exceptionally aged casks. They remain safely sleeping in the dunnage warehouses in Ballindalloch, with just the precious liquid for the lot removed.


1967:

Cask #6360, distilled on 10th November 1967, bottled on 17th May 2023 at 54.0 % abv


1968:

Cask #211, distilled on 17th January 1968, bottled on 17th May 2023 at 48.2 % abv


Presented in striking Glencairn Crystal Decanters within a made-to-measure ash wood cabinet made especially by Morans Wood Components.
