What a Q/P value for 18 year old

Before I had the 12 year old and was happy with it, very fruity and sherry aroma. So in the beginning, I was sceptic about this 18 year old, but now with the bottle more than half, it developped as a more adult and more intense Glenfarclas. Very smooth also on the palate, like a good cognac. The 12 yr is for me an aperitif whisky while this one is for after dinner. As I heard that the 18 years has been discontinued, I bought immediately the last 3 bottles at my retailer 65 euro/piece. What a Q/P value!

Good value, flavourful, easy drinking.

Had this after the 105. Comparatively, as spicy but less alcohol burn. (Sips at a slower pace than, say Bulleit 10yo bourbon.) Less woody and rum sweet as well. As such, nearly finished the entire bottle in a week. :D Will look for 17 and 12 for contrasts...

Tastes like petrol

Ok with an ice cube but straight up tastes like petrol. Let's see if it gets better after keeping the bottle open.

Below average 18yo

I would love to like this bottle. For an 18 YO, it seems good value for a 1L bottle. Then you realise why is it always the 17YO cost more? The taste profile is largely ok... sweet sherry vanila note with nuttiness and typical apple from speyside. Zero smoke. Quite bright for an afternoon dram. But it also tasted quite sharp for its age. I would expect smoother finish for an 18YO and the relatively low ABV. The finish is a little too tannic, very unsettling numbness. makes you feel that it was sitting inside a tired cask made out of cheap construction wood. This is no where near a good representation of Glenfaclas. Dont buy this just because you wanted a cheap 18YO. Go get the 17, or anything else in the Glenfaclas range.

Great tasting whisky

A truly great whisky, I bought a bottle for my 60th birthday, and our 38th wedding anniversary, and I gave to say both my mrs and myself really liked it. And so did our friends and family.
