Description
Glenfarclas THE FAMILY CASKS Single Cask SUMMER 2021 4th Fill Butt 1993 is a strictly limited single cask bottling from the Glenfarclas Distillery and exemplifies the distillery’s traditional family philosophy. The Family Casks series enjoys a special status among connoisseurs and collectors, as each bottling comes from a single cask and therefore has an unmistakable character. Distilled in 1993 and bottled on 9 June 2021, this Speyside single malt Scotch whisky matured for decades in a 4th fill butt with the cask number 4669.
Maturation in a 4th fill butt means that the cask has already been used several times, making the influence of the wood finer and more subtle and giving the distillate room to develop its own depth. Bottled at cask strength with 57.6 %, this is an authentic cask strength single malt bottling without dilution that combines strength, structure and elegance. This rare vintage is presented in a high-quality wooden box that emphasises its exclusive collector’s character. The overall impression is complex, expressive and long-lasting, with classic Speyside origins.
