The Glenfarclas THE FAMILY CASKS Single Cask SUMMER 2024 from Sherry Butt #3418, at 61.4% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle presented in a high-quality wooden box, is a strictly limited single-cask release from Speyside, which is uncompromising in its commitment to authenticity and cask character. Distilled in 2006 and bottled on 1 August 2024, this edition comes from the historic Glenfarclas Distillery and has been bottled as a single cask strength whisky, unadulterated at cask strength. The limited run of just 599 bottles underlines the exclusivity of this summer edition.


Full maturation in a classic sherry butt lends the whisky depth, structure and a distinct balance between the distillate and the cask. Sherry butts are renowned for their slow, steady influence, allowing the characteristic Glenfarclas style to shine through whilst simultaneously building complexity and length. Bottled without chill filtration and without colouring, this expression retains its natural texture, density and colour. The high alcohol content of 61.4% ensures tremendous presence and intensity, harmoniously supported by the long maturation. Presented in a wooden box, this bottling appeals equally to seasoned connoisseurs and ambitious collectors.
