Glenfarclas, one of Scotland's few remaining family-owned and managed distilleries, has announced the release of its oldest whisky to date .
. Distilled on 20 November 1953, the Glenfarclas 70-Year-Old marks a 'pinnacle' in the distillery's legacy.
marks a 'pinnacle' in the distillery's legacy. Only 262 bottles of the Glenfarclas 70-Year-Old will be available globally from June 2025, with pricing starting at £20,000 (AUD$41,000), subject to regional variations.
If you know your Scotch, then you know Glenfarclas. Like so many of its whisky-making brethren, the Speyside distillery has been around for centuries and counting. However, it's one of Scotland's few operations that's still family-owned after all these years, making it the exception rather than the rule as various conglomerates continue to swallow the industry whole. From this enduring heritage comes the distillery's oldest expression yet, a 70-Year-Old whisky that's limited to just 262 bottles and available for a suggested retail price of £20,000 (AUD$41,000).
With its latest release, Glenfarclas joins a growing number of distilleries that are breaking personal records in terms of age statements. Over the past few years alone, everyone from Highland Park to The Macallan has likewise debuted their oldest expressions to date. However, don't take that to mean these whiskies are anything short of small miracles, Glenfarclas 70-Year-Old being no exception. Distilled all the way back in 1953, the liquid has survived six different distillery managers across seven decades.

'This is true Glenfarclas and this expression captures the very DNA of the distillery,' distillery manager Callum A. Fraser said. 'What we did 30 or 40 or even 70 years ago is very much what we still do today. The warehouses are still here, holding decades of stories in their walls. At the heart of it all, tradition remains key.'
'This whisky has waited seventy years to be enjoyed. Through wars, the reign of a queen and now a king, the world has changed — but this spirit has endured, and it stands as a rare and timeless testament to patience and craft.'
Detractors might argue that excessive maturation doesn't amount to a better-tasting spirit (in fact, some attest that overexposure to oak can have a detrimental effect), but we're nevertheless intrigued by this new – and by that, we mean old – release. Matured in first-fill sherry casks inside the distillery's dunnage warehouses, the whisky predictably imparts a dark teak colour.
The nose goes big on stewed fruit with gentle peaty accents, followed by an impossibly rich palate of dark chocolate, toffee, spice, sherry, dried fruit, and roasted coffee. A long and mouth-coating finish resurrects the smoky undertones and presumably cultivates a fair amount of oak and spice before trailing out.

Naturally, as one of the last truly independent distilleries standing in Scotland, Glenfarclas remains a beacon of craftsmanship and defiance in the industry. For fifth-generation family member John Grant, the release of this highly coveted 70-year-old expression is testament to the unwavering dedication of the entire Glenfarclas team.
'As chairman of a family-owned distillery, I am committed to overseeing the production of our exceptional malt whisky, just as my forefathers did before me,' Grant said. 'We take great pride in maintaining complete control over every aspect of production, preserving our time-honoured traditional methods – most notably, the use of direct-fired stills, which creates a robust and full-bodied spirit.'
'Remarkably, this particular cask has been maturing almost as long as I've been alive. Releasing it now marks a true milestone, and one that Callum and I have considered carefully and with great respect for its legacy.'

Glenfarclas 70-Year-Old makes up part of the Warehouse Series and comes preceded by 30, 35, and 40-year expressions, respectively. Unlike some neighbouring brands – cough, The Macallan, cough – this distillery doesn't go overboard with the presentation. That is to say, the whisky comes with the same understated bottle design and packaging as the other releases in the range, so as to let the liquid speak for itself. And based on what we can infer, there's a lot of speaking to do.
The Glenfarclas 70-Year-Old will be available globally from June 2025 through a select network of specialist retailers in over 50 markets. The recommended retail price is £20,000 (AUD$41,000), subject to regional variations.

10 Highest-Paid Players in the EPL This Season
This season, the highest-paid players in the English Premier League (EPL) come from five clubs and have an average annual salary of AUD$37.86 million. The highest-paid player in the EPL is Erling Haaland, whose £27,300,000 (approx. AUD$56.3 million) salary also makes him one of the highest-paid athletes in the world. The Norwegian striker is the top-paid of the Abu Dhabi royal family-backed Manchester City trio, including Omar Marmoush and captain Bernardo Silva. Together, their combined salaries exceed £58.5 million (AUD$121 million). Where does that put them amongst other teams in the EPL? Let's take a closer look at the highest-paid players and find out. Highest-Paid Players in the EPL at a Glance Highlights from our list include the following options: Now you've read the highlights, let's check out the complete list. Erling Haaland | Image: Supplied / Manchester City 1. Erling Haaland, £27.3 million Salary: £27,300,000 (approx. AUD$56.3 million) The highest-paid player in the EPL, Erling Haaland, will earn more than £27.3 million for the 2025-2026 season at his Manchester City club. Ultimately, you have to put the ball in the net to get paid the big bucks, and Haaland has already cemented his name as one of the greats. He's the EPL's best scorer by a healthy margin (85 goals since 2022-23), and he's trailed by Mohamed Salah, who has managed 66 goals in that span. Haaland has managed 20 goals in EPL competitions for three straight seasons, so his consistency is key, and comes from the fact that he can score at all three levels: one-on-one, with acrobatics, and volleys. Position : Forward : Forward Team : Manchester City : Manchester City Contract length : 10 years (extension) : 10 years (extension) Contract ends : 2034 : 2034 Weekly salary (derived): ~£525,000 Mohamed Salah | Image: Supplied / Liverpool 2. Mohamed Salah, £20.8 million Salary: £20,800,000 (approx. AUD$42.9 million) Three-time Golden Boot winner Mohamed Salah is Liverpool's all-time Premier League top scorer and still one of the best on the planet. It earned him another healthy extension with the club, cementing his legacy for another two years, and making him the second-highest-paid player in the EPL with an annual salary of £20.8 million. While some believe his best days are behind him, Salah still hopes to win a couple more trophies. 'Of course, I'm very excited,' he said in an announcement from Liverpool. 'We have a great team now. Before also we had a great team. But I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football.' Position : Forward : Forward Team : Liverpool : Liverpool Contract length : 2 years (current term) : 2 years (current term) Contract ends : 2027 : 2027 Weekly salary (listed): £350,000 Carlos Casemiro | Image: Supplied / Manchester United 3. Carlos Casemiro, £18.2 million Salary: £18,200,000 (approx. AUD$37.5 million) Casemiro is a winner, with five UEFA Champions Leagues under his belt thanks to success at his former club, Real Madrid. He joined Manchester United in 2022 and signed one of the most significant contracts we'd ever seen, earning him a whopping £18.2 million per season. That still makes him one of the highest-paid players in the EPL this season, but we can't ignore reports that he's not in head coach Ruben Amorim's plans. Position : Midfielder : Midfielder Team : Manchester United : Manchester United Contract length : 4 years : 4 years Contract ends : 2026 (UFA 2027) : 2026 (UFA 2027) Weekly salary (derived): ~£350,000 4. Virgil Van Dijk, £18.2 million Salary: £18,200,000 (approx. AUD$37.5 million) The first player from the backline to land a spot on our list is Liverpool captain Virgil Van Dijk, the fourth-highest-paid player in the EPL this season. He was the target of a record £75m transfer to Liverpool in 2018 and has now signed a two-year contract that will keep him at the club until 2027 and earn him £18.2 million annually. While he's only scored 25 goals in more than 300 appearances, Van Dijk is the defensive anchor and rarely gets dribbled past. Team : Liverpool : Liverpool Position : Defender : Defender Contract length : 2 years : 2 years Contract ends : 2027 : 2027 Weekly salary (GBP): £350,000 Bruno Fernandes | Image: Supplied / Manchester United 5. Bruno Fernandes, £15.6 million Salary: £15,600,000 (approx. AUD$32.2 million) Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is the fifth-highest-paid player in the EPL this season and is the man who can be credited for taking his team to the FA Cup in 2024. While the club has had some performance issues recently (their most horrific season in the Premier League era), the midfielder scored eight goals last season in 36 matches, which isn't too shabby. Now, he has his sights set on regaining the fan base's trust with something better than a 16th-placed finish, their worst since 1989-90. Position : Midfielder : Midfielder Team : Manchester United : Manchester United Contract length : 4 years (current deal) : 4 years (current deal) Contract ends : 2026 : 2026 Weekly salary (derived): ~£300,000 Jack Grealish | Image: Supplied / Everton 6. Jack Grealish, £15.6 million Salary: £15,600,000 (approx. AUD$32.2 million) On loan to Everton from Manchester City, 29-year-old Jack Grealish joined City from Aston Villa for a British record fee of £100 million in August 2021. He found overwhelming success at City, making over 150 appearances for the club, winning three Premier League titles, the Champions League and the FA Cup. However, his career now sits at a crossroads, but a new club will hopefully rejuvenate it handsomely, and a new stadium and fanbase will at least light a fire under the midfielder. 'I think we're getting him at a good time because he's experienced, he understands the Premier League, and we're all fully aware of the levels he's capable of performing to,' said Everton boss David Moyes. 'We're all looking forward to working with him and providing a platform for him to show the best version of himself.' Position : Midfielder : Midfielder Team : Everton (on loan) : Everton (on loan) Contract length : 4 years (current deal) : 4 years (current deal) Contract ends : 2026 : 2026 Weekly salary (derived): ~£300,000 Bernardo Silva | Image: Supplied / Manchester City 7. Bernardo Silva, £15.6 million Salary: £15,600,000 (approx. AUD$32.2 million) Manchester City has a new captain, Bernardo Silva. This season, the seventh-highest-paid player in the EPL is an experienced midfielder and right winger who was key to the club's treble championship success in 2022-2023. The players did not select him, but by manager Pep Guardiola, who says he didn't like the selection of Kyle Walker last season. 'I didn't like what happened last season, and I decided this season who will represent the team,' said Guardiola on Tuesday at his pre-match media session in Philadelphia, ahead of City's 2-0 win against Wydad of Morocco at the Club World Cup. 'I say to Bernardo often, 'You are 50 per cent clown, 50 per cent leader,'' said Guardiola at the time. 'When he becomes 25 per cent clown, 75 per cent leader, he will become the captain of this team.' It's clear that the time is now, and his job will be leading one of the most successful teams in the last decade in the EPL. Position : Midfielder : Midfielder Team : Manchester City : Manchester City Contract length : 3 years (current deal) : 3 years (current deal) Contract ends : 2026 : 2026 Weekly salary (derived): ~£300,000 Omar Marmoush | Image: Supplied / Manchester City 8. Omar Marmoush, £15.34 million Salary: £15,340,000 (approx. AUD$31.8 million) Scoring eight goals in 25 appearances last season, Omar Marmoush was part of a £60.3 million transfer from Eintracht Frankfurt back in January. He signed a four-and-a-half-year contract with the club, and the rest has been, as they say, history. His goal against Bournemouth will be remembered as one of the greatest of the decade, winning the Goal of the Season. Now, he can make history with Erling Haaland by his side. Position : Forward : Forward Team : Manchester City : Manchester City Contract length : 4 years (current deal) : 4 years (current deal) Contract ends : 2026 : 2026 Weekly salary (derived): ~£300,000 Kai Havertz | Image: Supplied / Arsenal F.C. 9. Kai Havertz, £14.56 million Salary: £14,560,000 (approx. AUD$30.16 million) Kai Havertz is one of the highest-paid players in the EPL this season with an estimated annual salary of £14.56 million. The attacking midfielder is facing one of the most critical campaigns of his career, to win the Premier League after a 2024-25 season that saw Liverpool come up short in every competition. Martin Zubimendi, Kepa Arrizabalaga and Christian Nørgaard have been added to the team, and coach Mikel Arteta is keen for fans to connect with their new talent immediately. 'We want our people to start connecting with our players straight away,' said Arteta. 'To start to build momentum and to start to feel that at home we are invincible – that we play here with such passion, energy and connection with our people, that we are going to win the game.' Position : Forward : Forward Team : Arsenal F.C. : Arsenal F.C. Contract length : 5 years (2023–2027) : 5 years (2023–2027) Contract ends : 2027 : 2027 Weekly salary (derived): ~£280,000 Gabriel Jesus | Image: Supplied / Arsenal F.C. 10. Gabriel Jesus, £13.78 million Salary: £13,780,000 (approx. AUD$28.58 million) Next to Kai Havertz is Gabriel Jesus, a four-time Premier League champion with Manchester City before joining the Gunners in 2022. Sadly, he underwent ACL surgery in January, and we're unlikely to see him this season. Position : Forward : Forward Team : Arsenal F.C. : Arsenal F.C. Contract length : 5 years (2022–2027) : 5 years (2022–2027) Contract ends : 2027 : 2027 Weekly salary (derived): ~£265,000 How We Made This List Of course, it's impossible to put an exact figure on the contracts of any EPL player, as this information is not publicly available. However, by looking at each team's salary cap, analysing the publicly available information, examining the rare official documents related to player signings, and examining the info shared by sources closer to the league, we were able to come up with an accurate list of 2025-2026 player salaries. You might notice that names like Raheem Sterling are missing from this list. That's entirely down to the discrepancies we found in information reported by websites like Spotrac and OTC. Sterling reportedly signed a £47.5m contract with Chelsea from Manchester City in 2022, but has since fallen out of favour with the club, so it's unlikely that he's earning the £16.9 million contract that some sources report online.

Australia's biggest company collapses cost taxpayers millions
Australian taxpayers were forced to fork out $258.5 million last financial year thanks to the collapse of several high profile companies. can exclusively reveal how much a government scheme paid out for employee entitlements owed by failed companies, with some of the country's most recognisable brands topping the list. Retail giant Mosaic Brands – owner of Millers, Rivers, Crossroads, Katies, Noni B and Autograph – spectacularly collapsed last year owing a whopping $318 million, with more than 4000 staff members impacted. It topped the list for the biggest payout to employees from a government scheme called the Fair Entitlements Guarantee (FEG) last financial year. Almost 1150 former employees from Noni B made a claim, with the scheme shelling out an extraordinary $11.2 million. Two airlines that dramatically collapsed last year took out the spots for second and third biggest payouts from FEG. More than 310 former employees from Rex received $7.3 million worth of entitlements after it went into voluntary administration, but the airline continues to operate as a buyer is sought. Meanwhile, Bonza's collapse also saw 300 claims with $6.9 million paid out to employees. Another Australian company Montoro Roofing took out the fourth spot with 105 claimants that received $6.7 million. The high profile collapse of Booktopia, which was later bought out and resurrected, rounded out the top five with the scheme laying out just over $4 million to 150 former employees. MORE: 'Legit' Aussie tax secrets revealed University of Sydney corporate law professor Jason Harris said Australia is seeing an increasing number of companies go bust every year. He attributed this to higher interest rates, Covid assistance schemes no longer propping up failing firms and tax collections being enforced with small business tax debts sitting at more than $30 billion. Yet it wasn't just Australian employees impacted by Mosaic Brands - overseas suppliers in developing countries were left with a serious amount of unpaid debt, Mr Harris noted. A liquidator's report showed that 23 factory owners in Bangladesh were owed a total of $30 million by Mosaic. 'The company had an (alleged) pattern of behaviour over years of underpaying their suppliers and not paying them,' Mr Harris said. 'Mosaic Brands also got fined by the Fair Work Ombudsman's Office for underpaying their employees. So the company had problems for years. It's not at all surprising that they were one of the top claimants.' In 2023, NSW Employee Relations Inspectorate uncovered systemic underpayments of long service leave to 223 workers arising from payroll system errors at Mosaic Brands and its subsidiaries. The company pleaded guilty to 324 offences and led to a $29,000 fine, which was a NSW record at the time. Meanwhile airline businesses don't have many assets, Mr Harris explained, given there were two operators with some of the biggest FEG claims. 'It sounds weird but most of the planes are leased. Often the assets, are the landing spots that you have at the major airports and not a lot else,' he said. Do you have a story? Contact But there was one crucial entitlement missing from FEG's payout – superannuation – a huge issue generally when it comes to company collapses, Mr Harris added. 'There may well be employees whose retirement futures have been destroyed because their employer hasn't been paying or they're not keeping up with their super. Insolvency practitioners – I think it's in excess of 60 per cent of the reports that they file with ASIC say that there's underpaid super and that's been the case for years,' he said. 'Most people don't keep turning up to work if you stop paying them wages, but a lot of people don't understand their super. So they don't know how to check whether or not the payments that are going in are correct or whether there's an underpayment and then that accumulates. 'In some cases, it ends up pushing some companies under because the penalties for getting the super wrong can be very high. But that's cold comfort to the employees who then don't get paid their super and it's not covered by FEG.' Critically, Mr Harris said early intervention is desperately needed before things go terribly wrong with companies, adding generally the system currently lets corporate issues slide a lot of the time. 'A lot of businesses have warning signs over years. They end up in disputes with the tax office or they have multiple broken payment arrangements. There's red flags. Why do we keep waiting until the whole thing goes off the cliff and then wonder why there's nothing left?' he asked. 'The taxpayers are left to pick up the tab for the employees. Maybe we should be doing a bit more upfront. Maybe we should have more inspectors at the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations. Maybe ASIC should be bringing more enforcement cases. Maybe we could properly fund the Assetless Administration Fund. There's things that we can do that would reduce the concerns in this area. 'But every year we complain about it. Every year there's a new example of … workers losing out on entitlements. At what point do we say we actually want to fix this?' An ASIC spokesperson said the corporate regulator is not resourced to do more than around 150 to 200 investigations a year. Insolvency firm Jirsch Sutherland partner Chris Baskerville said construction is still the leading industry for corporate failure in Australia at the moment, followed closely by hospitality and retail, although professional services were starting to creep up. He said data from last financial year saw 15,000 companies go bust – more than the 11,000 that collapsed during the GFC. Little known was that FEG became one of the highest priority creditors after paying out entitlements, he added. 'Often we will go to FEG asking for funding, say if we're chasing a million dollar recovery where employees stand to gain, and we ask would you please fund our litigation so that I'm not going into this without any protection,' he said. 'Otherwise, I'm at full risk. We tend to find that FEG tends to fund either larger matters where there's obviously a greater exposure to FEG or larger firms.' Meanwhile in the 2024-25 financial year, the Fair Entitlements Guarantee paid $258.5 million in unpaid entitlements to eligible former employees. A Department of Employment and Workplace Relations spokesperson said FEG is a legislative safety net scheme of last resort. '(It) funds certain outstanding employee entitlements of eligible employees whose former employer has entered liquidation or bankruptcy and where these entitlements cannot be funded from other sources,' they said. Other employees who received payouts after companies failed including national food manufacturer HS Fresh Food whose almost 200 staff had $3.7 million paid and A. S. I Electrics saw 180 staff members given $3.3 million. Another Australian manufacturer Camatic, which collapsed with $29 million in debt, saw 65 employees receive $3.2 million, while a company called Tuftex Carpets had 61 claims amounting to $3.1 million. Rounding out the top 10 payments from FEG last financial year was construction company Allroads Pty Ltd with 102 employees receiving just over $3 million. Mr Harris called for the Assetless Administration Fund to be given more government funding so liquidators can prosecute cases. 'They only tip in a couple of million a year. If we've got 15,000 companies going under each year, the vast majority of them have very little or no assets,' he said. 'If they increase that fund so that liquidators could then do their job properly, I think we would see better outcomes and that would actually provide more of a deterrence. 'Running these cases can cost hundreds of thousands, in some cases, unfortunately, millions of dollars. And the Assetless Administration Fund is just insufficient and the resources that ASIC has to go after some of these practices are also insufficient.' A spokesperson for ASIC said the corporate regulator is in court nearly every day. 'Our investigation numbers have jumped 25 per cent and our new civil proceeding filings are up 23 per cent,' they said. 'ASIC must make difficult decisions about where to dedicate its focus to maximise regulatory impact and reduce harm to consumers and the reality is ASIC is not resourced to do more than around 150 to 200 investigations a year.' A Department of Employment and Workplace Relations spokesperson said it regularly refers matters to ASIC to investigate whether company directors or other officers should be disqualified from managing corporations where FEG may have been inappropriately relied on.

2025 US Open Prize Money Revealed
There's USD$90 million (AUD$138 million) worth of prize money on the line at the 2025 US Open. That's an increase of 20% from 2024's $75 million, making it the largest purse in tennis history. While the tennis season starts with a pretty deep pot at the Australian Open (AUD$96.5 million), the purse at the US Open is on another level. Singles winners will take home USD$5,000,000 (AUD$7,660,000) or more than twice the amount of money they win for winning at the Australian Open (AUD$3,500,000). Proving that it does pay to play at the top of your game, something that Roger Federer, Pete Sampras, and Jimmy Connors have both proven by winning the tournament a record five times each. Importantly, prize money for men and women is equal, and has been since the 1970s. That means the winner of both women's and men's Singles will earn the same USD$5,000,000, while the winner of the women's and men's Doubles will earn less at USD$1,000,000 (AUD$1,530,000) per team. Still, even those that don't make it out of the Round of 128 will comfortably cover the cost of hiring their private jet. Let's take a closer look at how much players earn at the 2025 US Open, according to the official information provided by the tournament. Aryna Sabalenka captured the women's crown at the 2024 US Open | Image: Supplied Singles Prize Money at 2025 US Open If you were considering a switch to professional, it might be a tad late. However, the prize money continues to climb at an all-time rate, so it might be time for the kids to pick up a tennis racket. This year, the winner of the US Open will take home $5,000,000 (+38.9% YoY) in both women's and men's singles. Even those that make it to the tournament and lace up their shoes will walk home with more than the average salary in Australia, pocketing USD$110,000 (+10.0% YoY) for their troubles. Singles Winner 2025: $5,000,000 (+38.9% YoY) 2024: $3,600,000 2023: $3,000,000 2022: $2,600,000 2021: $2,500,000 Singles Runner-Up 2025: $2,500,000 (+38.9% YoY) 2024: $1,800,000 2023: $1,500,000 2022: $1,300,000 2021: $1,250,000 Singles Semifinalist 2025: $1,260,000 (+26.0% YoY) 2024: $1,000,000 2023: $775,000 2022: $705,000 2021: $675,000 Singles Quarterfinalist 2025: $660,000 (+24.5% YoY) 2024: $530,000 2023: $455,000 2022: $445,000 2021: $425,000 Singles Round of 16 2025: $400,000 (+23.1% YoY) 2024: $325,000 2023: $284,000 2022: $278,000 2021: $265,000 Singles Round of 32 2025: $237,000 (+10.2% YoY) 2024: $215,000 2023: $191,000 2022: $188,000 2021: $180,000 Singles Round of 64 2025: $154,000 (+10.0% YoY) 2024: $140,000 2023: $123,000 2022: $121,000 2021: $115,000 Singles Round of 128 2025: $110,000 (+10.0% YoY) 2024: $100,000 2023: $81,500 2022: $80,000 2021: $75,000 Australians Max Purcell and Jordan Thompson won the US Open men's doubles in 2024 | Image: Supplied Doubles Prize Money at 2025 US Open The focus remains on the Singles at the US Open, but the prize money for the Doubles winners is nothing to sneeze at.
