About this deal

The nose has more malt than usual and the sherry is all about chocolate at first. Then you have this fine leather with nutmeg a gentle cinnamon and none of the spicy side of the clove. The spices are again incredibly gentle. There is also a sour note coming from the malt with a vegetable hint if you look for it. Finish: Sweet sweet and more sweet, this stuff is truly great. Nice and complex with much of the flavours in the nose and palate continuing on an on... Quite simply, Glenfarclas is one of the great distilleries. Not just because of its proudly independent heritage but because of the superior quality of the whisky produced there. The Grants’ dedication to age statements and commitment to sherry maturation, regardless of cost, should be an inspiration to other distillers. It is the fruits of the sherry. The winey sherry bombs are the Aberlour 15yr Sherry Wood Finish and the Arran Sherry Single Cask. I still like those, but I could understand why others don't.

Neat - Spirity, Some chocolate, a bit of that vegetal flavour from the nose. Not getting much sherry as I would have expected. 20/25 Nozinan good review. Your notes are consistent to my experience: dark chocolate and red fruits. I quite like the 15 a lot. Yet I find that Glenfarclas's "house style" really shines once you reach 21 onwards, yet becoming more gentle. The Glenfarclas 15. No color added, bottled at 46% instead of 43% like most of their standards because apparently that's the way the founder enjoyed it.

Glenfarclas 15 Year Old Scotch Whisky : The Whisky Exchange

I'm sad to say about half the bottle has gone and these notes are from a neat pour that's sat for about twenty minutes. Quite demanding sherry bottling, sometimes without dried fruit. Very dry from start to finish. But definitely complex and exciting. Quite thin for a barrel strength, or, if you want to put it positively, alcohol well integrated. Thanks to the temerity and determination of those Grant boys, however, the company pulled through. Without such hard work and bloody-mindedness, it seems doubtful that Glenfarclas would still be here today. Thankfully, the distillery remains standing in the shadow of Ben Rinnes, producing its single malt, exactly as it has for almost two centuries now.

This one goes one shade deeper in sherry from the 10 and 12 and not much else appears in this version. Taste: Heavily caramelized sugar, like the kind you find on some sweet BBQ. Maple syrup, rich fruit, a bit of spicy cinnamon. Really rich, deep, and mature.

They tend to describe themselves as Highlands, but even that term is somewhat vague when you consider how big the Highlands are. Glenfarclas is just Glenfarclas. Speyside is a relatively recent term, used to market Scotch whisky. At the time of Alfred Barnard’s visit around 1886, he notes the region as Glenlivet. Don't wait in!
