A rich and sherried 15 year old malt from one of the best distilleries in Speyside, bottles in a 5cl providing a superb little sampler of what this 15 year old had to offer.
Aged for a little bit longer and bottled a little stronger for a more concentrated, richer flavour. This 15 year old matured in sherry wood, a superb malt which earned 95 points from Jim Murray.
As always, Glenfarclas remains one of the best-value malts on the market – a must for lovers of sherried whisky.
Colour: Rich golden amber.
Nose: Intense, powerful and creamy sherry - Pedro Ximenez? A delicious hint of peppermint.
Palate: Raisins, yet more sherry with orange peel, walnuts and finally dates.
Finish: Incredibly long and complex with more of the walnuts again.
