Glenfarclas is distilled and matured in a family owned and run distillery in a time honoured process which dates back to 1836.
This fabled Speysider comes in a wide range of ages, right up to 60, but the 10-year-old is a perennially popular example of the brand and its style.
This superb 10 year old continues to impress the tasting panels at both national and international competitions year after year, offering a mouth-watering combination of sherry-sweet malty tones, delicately peated, with a long spicy finish.
Nose: Tempting sherry-sweet malty tones combine with delicate smokiness which release subtle spices. Warming the glass reveals honey, vanilla and pear drops.
Palate: Such a delicately light flavour with a mouth-watering combination of maltiness, smokiness and sherry sweetness. Hints of dried fruit, vanilla, cinnamon and cloves also appear and tempt the taste buds further.
Finish: Long, smooth and spicy, with a delicious, yet delicate, lingering smokiness.
Jim Murray has scored this Glenfarclas 10 Year Old 80/100 in his 2020 Whisky Bible, describing it as having ‘always an enjoyable malt'.
