Here we have an absolute classic Speysider from a long-time family-owned distillery. This 25 year old single malt from Glenfarclas spent its days in 100% Oloroso sherry casks. It’s complex and delicately sherried, a whisky that’s sure not to disappoint. It won gold at the 2019 International Spirits Challenge and makes a great after dinner treat. Awesome.
A touch of menthol. Classic Sherry notes, less pronounced than the 15 year old perhaps, but the complexity is greater.
Incredibly clean central palate, but amazingly tangy. Really zingy top notes. Sherry and creamy barley, hints of gingerbread and nutty chocolate.
Very, very long and complex finish, oak-rich, hints of smoke, cocoa, buttery...
One of our all-time favourite Speyside malts.

Working my way down. I like it, this 25 But prefer the 21. Gonna try the 18 next
I don't claim to know much about whisky, but I know what I like and what I don't like and this stuff is lovely. Smooth as silk and the more you have the more you enjoy it. Seems good value to me too for a 25 year old one.
The best I have had to date The finish is ever lasting Make sure you taste it like a good wine Smell it before you let it breathe then after wow
Quality 100%
