1993 Glenfarclas The Family Casks Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

The Glenfarclas Distillery, with over 50,000 casks currently maturing in its traditional dunnage warehouses, is in the enviable position of having stock in cask from every year from 1952 to the current day. The distillery formally launched 'The Family Casks', an exclusive collection of 43 vintage dated single cask whiskies in September 2007 and since then the interest in the range has been intense, with several collectors (and bars) quick to order a complete set. We are fortunate to be able to offer a very small quantity of the 1993 vintage for sale in Australia at a remarkable direct import price. (Note: these whiskies are vintage, then cask No. specific. More than one cask may be released under the one vintage so refer to cask numbers if you're searching for specific reviews).

The Family Cask prices have been steadily increasing over the last few years, especially in emerging Asian markets. Word has it that demand has been so strong that Glenfarclas have even stopped issuing tasting notes for the various casks. Instead, they literally reserve every last drop for the whisky trade. Several vintages are increasingly rare even in the distillery’s warehouses and may represent their final stocks.

Distilled in 1993 and placed into Sherry butt #3951 before being bottled in January 2017 at natural strength, this edition had an outturn of 536 bottles. Fantastic colour! 59.4% Alc./Vol.
