Buy Glenfarclas 12 yo at Master of Malt

It’ll be interesting to see if Glenfarclas picks up any customers after Macallan’s switch to mostly NAS whisky. ‘Farclas 12 is a strong argument for the quality of their single malts.
Another strong argument is the price, I think. Often you’ll find the liter bottle for only a few bucks than the 0,7, around 35€.
