Can anyone explain to me what he said from 14:20-14:55？It seems to stay in one cask would have better result than finished in another one ? Why was that ? Thank you for explanation. I am a Taiwanese in love with whisky.
Thanks very much, it was a very enjoyable one to make, naturally! Your question really hits an intricate technicality, and I do not know what the exact answer is. Glenfarclas 105 is a very popular expression, and I imagine that casks of single malt are vatted together so that the whisky in the bottle is consistent across releases. How they also work it out to consistently hit 60%abv or 105 proof... that's a question for Glenfarclas!
I've heard they simply vat casks together until they end up at 60%. Abv too too low? Add another sherry butt at 62% to raise the abv of the vatting. For large batches like the 105 that seems doable to me...
Glenfarclas is criminally underrated and undervalued.
Fantastic video!!
Excellent visit! I always have their 12 yo and the 105 on hand. Their 15 is also excellent. Many thanks 🙏 for this video . Kind regards, SF

Great video! Question: If Glenfarclas 105 is Cask Strength, how 8s it consistently 105 proof? Aren't there variations from cask to cask?

@@saschaoswald480 Excellent solution, and no water added this way. Wish I'd had the foresight to ask this question myself!
