15.05.2022 - 22:43 / dailyrecord.co.uk
More than £100,000-worth of whisky has reportedly been stolen from a Scots distillery after it was ransacked during the early hours of Saturday morning.
Owners of Glenfarclas at Ballindalloch revealed their horror after the visitor centre had been broken into at 2.45am.
Images show cabinets smashed with a considerable quantity of booze missing.
The Grant family - who own and run the business - shared the news on Facebook in a desperate appeal to the public for information.
The post reads: "The pictures we never thought we would post. We are horrified to have to share that our Visitor Centre was broken into at approximately 2.45 this morning.
"The thieves clearly knew what they wanted as they smashed the cabinets and cleared out all the oldest and most valuable Family Casks and a bottle of 60-year-old, leaving destruction behind.
"The total value of the whisky stolen is over £100,000. The team are understandably very shaken up by these events. We would ask if you have any information related to this crime or are offered these bottles to please get in touch with us immediately, and please share this post."
More than 400 people reacted to the post and more than 60 commented.
Among them was Andrew Purslow, who wrote: "Despicable act , hope they are caught, make the bottles too hot to handle."
Kelly Spark added: "That's really shocking. I hope the person/persons behind this are caught."
Darren Williamson wrote: "So sorry to see, a fantastic friendly distillery that we have visited many times. Aberlour, Tullibardine and now
Glenfarclas along with the whisky shops that have been targeted recently, clearly security needs to be stepped up, sad times."
Bernhard Sch fer said: "With rising prices, this may happen more often in the future!
