Brief Tasting Notes
Glenfarclas is world-famous for its traditional direct-fired copper pot stills and dunnage maturation, which generate a heavier, exceptionally complex spirit style. At 27 years of age, the sherry cask influence and direct-fired character mesh wonderfully.

• Nose: It opens with waves of rich dried raisins, dark honey, toffee, and old, polished oak wood
• Palate: The texture is incredibly thick and creamy, layering dynamic spices over a dense core of dark chocolate and stewed plums
• Finish: It drifts away slowly with lingering dried apple rings, orange zest, and warming winter spices
