    Glenfarclas 1979 Family Cask Release X (cask 8791)

    The Glenfarclas 1979 Family Cask reaches double digits! The 10th release comes from cask 8791, a plain hogshead, and was bottled in 2012. A limited release of 210 bottles of brilliant single malt Scotch whisky.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Rich, comforting vanilla with further sweetness underneath and a hint of oak.

    Palate

    A sweet selection of movie-theatre popcorn, butterscotch and liquorice.

    Finish

    Lasting, with maybe even a hint of fudge.

    Overall

    The tenth release of Glenfarclas 1979 is marvelous.
