Glenfarclas is distilled and matured in a family owned and run distillery in a time honoured process which dates back to 1836.
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.
Always an enjoyable malt, but for some reason this version never seems to fire on all cylinders. There is a vague honey sheen which works well with the barley but struggles for balance and the nose is a bit sweaty. Still has distinctly impressive elements but an off fish.
