The Glenfarclas 105 12 Years Old Highland Single Malt The Hourglass Limited Edition 60% Vol. 0.7 l + GB is an absolute rarity in the world of Scotch whisky. Back in 1968, Glenfarclas 105 was the first ever officially commercial cask strength whisky to be released, making whisky history in the process. Now, for the first time, a bottling of this classic whisky has been released with an age statement: Glenfarclas 105 has matured for a full 12 years in the strongest Oloroso sherry casks, combining the legendary strength of 105 with the depth of a long cask age.


With an alcohol content of 60% vol., this limited edition impresses with its intense flavour, full-bodied structure and outstanding complexity. The hand-picked Oloroso casks, which still have a natural volume of 60% after 12 years, are a rarity and illustrate the Grant family's excellent cask management. Presented in an ornate golden hourglass design, the 105 12 Years Old embodies a unique journey through time through craftsmanship, sherry cask maturation and the traditional Dunnage Warehouses.


This edition is strictly limited to 4,200 bottles and has been released exclusively for the German market. It offers connoisseurs the opportunity to discover an unrivalled variant of the world-famous Glenfarclas 105, which sets standards with its balance of intense sherry sweetness, powerful spice and voluminous strength.
