Lot number: 067-2107

Winning bid: £20

Still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside's independent whisky producers. The Grant family have been running Glenfarclas since 1860, producing an individual Speyside malt that many whisky enthusiasts number as one of their favourites. The water source is melt water from the slopes of Ben Rinnes which runs through granite and heather before reaching Glenfarclas (meaning 'the valley of green grass'). With a long history of bottlings stretching back to the early 20th Century, both proprietary and independent.

This well presented and superbly well written account of Glenfarclas and its history was commissioned to mark the distillery's 175th anniversary.

Filled with archive photographs as well as new ones by John Paul, written by Ian Buxton and presented by designer Jules Akel, this is a superb book on one of the world's greatest distilleries that will be a delight for any Scotch whisky aficionado!

Please examine all images of the lot, any packaging and labels carefully and satisfy yourself as to their condition before making a bid.
