About GlenfarclasScotland
Glenfarclas Distillery stands at the foot of Ben Rinnes near Ballindalloch, Banffshire, and was first licensed in 1836. The cattle breeder John Grant bought the distillery and Recherlich farm in 1865, and it is still owned and run by the Grant family through their company J. & G. Grant. The whisky is distilled twice in direct fired stills and matured in Oloroso sherry casks from Spain. When Glenfarclas lost a major blending contract in the late 1960s, George S Grant laid down more stock for the distillery's own bottlings, and these aged stocks are now sold as The Family Casks. Anniversary releases include Glenfarclas 175, 185 and 190, the last bottled at 51.4% ABV in 2026.
