GLENFARCLAS DISTILLERY

Among the handful of truly stand-alone distilleries in Scotland, Glenfarclas is the most assertive of its independence, by far the longest-established, and the best-known to connoisseurs.  Its whiskies are in the top flight among Speysiders, though they do not enjoy the wider popular reputation of some similar examples from this region. 

From the river Spey, it is about a mile to Glenfarclas (“Valley of the Green Grass”).  The distillery is near the village of Marypark.  Behind it, heather-covered hills rise towards Ben Rinnes, from which the distillery’s water flows.  Barley is grown in the surrounding area.  The distillery belongs to a private, family-owned company, J. and G. Grant.  The family is not connected (except perhaps distantly) to any of the other whisky-making Grants, and does not own any other distilleries or bottlers.  Glenfarclas traces its history to 1836, and has been in the family since 1865.  Although some of the buildings date from that period, and the reception room has paneling from an ocean liner, the equipment is modern, and its stills are the biggest in Speyside.
