Glenfarclas 1967 50th Anniversary Of The Lisbon Lions
Lot number: 090-1200
This lot failed to meet its reserve.
Still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside's independent whisky producers. The Grant family has 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 bottlings are much sought after.
This single cask bottling was released exclusively for the 50th Anniversary of the Lisbon Lions Celtic team that won the European Cup in 1967. Bottle number 2 would have been Jim Craig's team number.
Distilled: 1967
58.2% ABV / 70cl
