Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
fresh fresh fresh. One of the freshest Glenfarclas I’ve ever nosed (now, I do remember a 1967 that… oh forget). Custard, melon syrup, glazed chestnuts, a touch of waxed paper, old books, mojito (not joking), fresh mint leaves… It’s a very different Glenfarclas, we’re far from any sherried extravaganza. With water: hay! After all, this is summertime. Not 100% sure it swims well, having said that, water seems to close it down
restaurant Palate
fresh syrups and liqueurs. Hay liqueur, melon liqueur, citron liqueur (you should try that, Mattei in Corsica make a good one), limoncello… In fact, it is very un-Glenfarclas, but I guess that’s what we should expect from a good independent bottler. Love the freshness in this. With water: no, no water please, this baby’s a rather bad swimmer. Makes it a little cardboardy. Finish (without water): long, with some barley, sweet bread, IPA, oranges…
