Tasting Notes

Colour

Dark red amber

air Nose

arch-classic sherried Glenfarclas, rather rich, oh-so slightly meaty, full of dried fruits, Christmas cake, with a wee drop of mocha and, above everything, a good five kilograms of moist pipe tobacco. With water: menthol, sage, chives and lovage popping out, I can't see who would be against that. Perfect evolution of a deeply sherried malt once proper reduction was done

restaurant Palate

perfect, with rather a lot of liquorice, which is a little unusual with this style, otherwise truckloads of dried fruits, the raisins being on top. Totally Glenfarclas as in Glenfarclas. With water: swims perfectly. Died beef (obviously, I had intended to write 'dried'), raisins, chestnuts, tobacco, coffee, mole sauce… This is perfect

timer Finish

long, very chocolaty, with some mint. Thin mints, not the first time we're trying a Glenfarclas that would display thin mints
