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.
Lovely
No menthol, just ripe apples and fruits, great taste. Lovely oaky sweetness which you can chew for ages
above review was meant for the 30 year old... hehe. that'll teach me to drink all 5 drams in a tasting set so quickly
this is a stunner. only tries a sample so far but this bottle is on my future purchase list..
We tried this together with older Glenfarclas but I think this beauty was the best
