Lots of sherry and fruit in this, Glenfarclas 12 was originally bottled for export and travel retail markets. In 2006, it was named the "Best Sherried Whisky" in the Single Malt World Cup, and in 2007 and 2008 it won Gold at the Stockholm Beer and Whisky Festival.
Light and creamy with a mix of supple, soft sherry and Manuka honey. Gentle and well-balanced, there are hints of smoke, rich oak, and a little pine resin.
Medium-bodied, with notes of date and walnut cake, Oloroso sherry and hints of earthy forest floor. A beautiful note of malt, with toffee apple and a touch of smoke.
Spicy and long, notes of allspice, cinnamon and cloves, with orange zest and sherry.
"Straight to the point" whisky. Real Highlander, no prisoners taken but also pleasant. What's not to like.
This is absolutly delicious, and it's getting better with the years! 15, 18, 21 and 25, what a dram those are! ?
I love this stuff. It's not my favorite scotch ever, but it's the best scotch I can afford to regularly drink. A splash of water and 10 minutes does it wonders too. It has a great nose of toffee and honey. It gets a bit sweet on the palette, but makes up for it with an ever-drying finish with a touch of oak.
Unusual, but very good. Raisin, Toffee, Sherry, Honey, Spice.... I found the nose to be particularly complex. Very much enjoyed!
Fantastic mixer. Three rocks, 1/1 ratio with a good ginger beer. One could sip these all night. Ooh baby. 2 oz glenfarclas, splash of vermouth, dash o bitters, aged sour cherry, get some.
