Product description
Glenfarclas 105 is an important cornerstone in the distillery's range. In 1968, George S. Grant came up with the idea of bottling the whisky undiluted from the cask as a Christmas present for employees and friends. An ingenious innovation, as most whiskies at the time were blended and marketed at drinking strength. The special edition to commemorate this idea was bottled for the first time in the history of the distillery with an age statement of 16 years. 105 proof corresponds to 60% natural cask strength by volume, from which the bottling takes its name.

The Distillery: Glenfarclas
Only a few distilleries in Scotland are still private owned. The Speyside distillery Glenfarclas is one of them. Maybe it’s the best known among them and maybe it’s one of the most successful family owned distilleries in Scotland ever. But for sure the Grants, owners of Glenfarclas, are very proud of the private status as their slogan “The Spirit of Independence” shows. Six generations of Grants have shaped Glenfarclas, from 1865 until today. This guaranteed a constancy of quality and foresight that a durable product as Whisky needs. There is hardly another distillery that has as much high quality and old Whiskies in its warehouses as Glenfarclas.
