Glenfarclas Distillery - Making Whisky in the Valley of the Green Grass

There are distilleries in Scotland which are particular about how they do things, and then there’s Glenfarclas. This distillery has been owned by the Grant Family for five generations, who are scrupulous about their traditionally fired stills and unyielding on the fact that their whisky only matures in one cask for that duration of its life. Glenfarclas holds a special esteem among whisky drinkers, and we are delighted to show this interview Callum Fraser the Distillery manager at Glenfarclas, to pick up some tips about what goes into making a whisky so rich in flavour and integrity. With many thanks to all the folks at Glenfarclas, for being so generous with your time, and to https://www.eikcaffery-creative.com/ who, once again, were on hand to capture every beautiful thing you see and hear. 0:00 Intro 0:38 Where is Glenfarclas 1:30 Glenfarclas Origins 3:09 A Day at the Distillery 4:03 A Family Business 6:10 Direct Fire & Other Whisky Traditions 8:50 Don't Fear the 105 10:29 One Sherry Cask for Life 14:57 Predicting the Future & Remembering the Past 18:44 Making Whisky for the People Who Come After
