Insider knowledge: Glenfarclas 15 Year Old whisky is named whisky by virtue of the fact it's from Scotland. If distilled in America the spelling would be Glenfarclas 15 Year Old whiskey, as opposed to whisky.
Nose: Intense, powerful sherry. Cream sherry, certainly – Pedro Ximenez? almost… a touch of peppermint? An almost rancio quality to this. Smells older than 15.Palate: Raisins, more sherry, orange peel, walnuts, dates.Finish: Incredibly long, complex, more of the Walnuts again.Overall: Water draws out sweetness. This is Christmas cake, not whisky. Simply astonishing. ...more

Only 15 yo?
Glenfarclas are definately one of the best, this seems alot older than 15 though - really complex. My favourite winter warmer!
15?
I love cakes and this one is the best what i ever had.I can only image how taste 21 and 25. This 15 is great indeed. oh men what a nose. Incredible.
long and rich
and like butter fruit cake. Or indeed pannetone with raisins and fruit peel is the closest on my palate. Complex and enjoyable - and I only had a sample dram! Onto the 21 year now...
15 yo Glenfarclas
Glenfarclas is the best and the 15yo is my all time favourite. Visit the Distillery and try the 15yo with a drop of spring water from the Green Burn - Heaven.
15 better than 17 and 21
In my opinion, Glenfarclas 15 is better than its older brothers and good value for money
A Masterpiece
A perfect balance of richness and freshness. This is one of the best and well-balanced whiskies I've tasted. Masterpiece.
Its OK
Not my favourite sherry cask single malt, but its pretty good for the price. It has attractive qualities but its nothing mind blowing.
Geat whisky
A wonder for a 15yo, super rich sherry, lovely chocolate mouth feel.
