Glenfarclas 17 yo GB Single Malt Whisky 70CL 43%

The grants select the best Scottish barley, mostly local grown hordeum distichon variety, together with chariot and opticis. After malting and milling the grist is mixed with soft local water in a 10m wide semi-lauter mash tun, the biggest in the country. The wort is fermented in steel wash-backs for 48 hours, at this stage the sour beer (or wash) is 8 percent abv, it’s distilled first to 23 percent abv in a large direct fired copper wash still, then again in a smaller spirits still.
