Since 1865 Glenfarclas has been owned and managed by just one family, the Grants of Glenfarclas. On the 8th of June 1865 John Grant acquired the tenancy for the Rechlerich Farm and as part of the transaction purchased the Glenfarclas Distillery for £511.19s.0d. To this day Glenfarclas is one of only a few distilleries in Scotland to remain family owned and managed. Now in the hands of the fifth generation of the family, the Grants remain committed to the vision of creating the best quality Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, in the traditional Speyside style. 

Glenfarclas was one of the first distilleries in Scotland to open a dedicated visitor centre in 1973. They have a range of tours to appeal to everyone from those new to whisky, to the dedicated enthusiast.

“We invite you to visit our truly independent distillery and discover our renowned Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky” – John L. S. Grant.
