Glenfarclas The Legend of Speyside - Springs - 2014 Release (70cl, 46%)

Glenfarclas The Legend of Speyside - Springs - 2014 Release (70cl, 46%)

Released as part of the Legend of Speyside range for the German market, this bottling of Sherry-cask-matured Glenfarclas single malt Scotch whisky honours the spring water at the core of spirit. Without water, there'd be no whisky. 

Glenfarclas has created a Trilogy. "The Legend of Speyside" combines with Passion, Springs and Team as a nod to old family tradition, absolute purity of water and historical practices of Glenfarclas distillery. The Oloroso casks that give this trilogy its distinctive aroma are produced in the Spanish Cooperage Jose & Miguel Martin. 6,000 of each expression were produced.

Glenfarclas is considered by many to be one of the finest distilleries in Speyside. Its direct-fired stills produce a heavy single malt that is almost exclusively matured in Jerez sherry casks. The distillery focuses on single malt over blends, and a cool microclimate around the distillery that means that their casks are particularly stingy to the "angels," resulting in an incredible depth of stock. Glenfarclas also feel they share some credit for the modern day love of cask strength whisky, introducing their acclaimed 105 proof expressions back in 1968.

Still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside's independent whisky producers. The Grant family have been running Glenfarclas since 1860, producing an individual Speyside malt that many whisky enthusiasts number as one of their favourites. The water source is melt water from the slopes of Ben Rinnes which runs through granite and heather before reaching Glenfarclas(meaning 'the valley of green grass'). With a long history of bottlings stretching back to the early 20th Century, both proprietary and independent.
