Anybody have any thoughts on the latest release from Glenfarclas. The 4th bottling in the Family Collector series, 35 yo In Port Casks with 521 bottles released at 47.9%...

Priced at £595...

Is it actually a port finish or fully matured in port casks? The former would be quite a departure for Glenfarclas, the latter surely a first for any distillery.

It's beyond what I'd pay for whisky, and anyway I wouldn't be that enthused about it if it's spent that long in port casks. However, I'm sure Glenfarclas know what they're doing!
