Details
One gallon bottle of 58 year old Glenfarclas Single Malt Scotch Whisky housed in a unique oak box.
The whisky is 58 year old single malt from Glenfarclas. It was matured in a first fill sherry butt and is 45.4% ABV.

The bottle is housed in a hand carved oak box.
The box was carved by renowned Scottish sculptor Stuart Murdoch, at his workshop less than 1.5 miles from the Glenfarclas Distillery. He agreed to produce the box in support of the charity and because of his close proximity to Glenfarclas. The design is inspired by the beautiful Scottish landscape around his home and the distillery.

As a Liveryman of longstanding, I am delighted to once again be supporting the brilliant work of The Distillers’ Charity. It is amazing to see the difference that has already been made to the lives of so many young people and it is my hope that this piece of Glenfarclas history will contribute to the ongoing success of the charity.
