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.

Received a free sample dram with my latest order ( thanks whiskysanta !) . Was expecting so much but this under delivered. Pleasant enough flavour but really lacking in depth and body . Could be so much better at 48% and NCF. Enjoyable enough as a freebie but very glad I hadn't just dropped over 200 quid on a full bottle .
Incredible finish! Neat mixed with your own saliva and it is perfect!
So tell me how come the price increased from £90 from where I cannot say, but in the UK, where I bought some a year or so ago, to >£200 now? Fabulous whisky though I should add.
…It’s also the only 25 year old scotch I’ve tasted, but I do love it, and think it’s worth the price on those rare occasions it’s in-stock at my local Total Wine store.
Lovely smooth/sweet taste with a great backbone. A great winter/cold weather drink.
