Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

a very interesting one, without any sherry, starting all on cut apples, vanilla custard and then mint and aniseed, which really lifts it. Becomes grassier over time, with a smokiness that never stops growing - unusual indeed. Also something waxy/farmy ala Clynelish, humus, moss… It's very 'naked', yet complex spirit, very different from most other Glenfarclas we know although I'm sure there are one or two in the Family Casks series that are similar

restaurant Palate

excellently fruity and, again, 'naked', starting on fruit salad with a little ginger and cinnamon and then, once again, quite some mint and smoke (cigar). Also more aniseed, a little curry, calvados, sweet barley, cider… Very nice complexity

timer Finish

long, sweet, fruity, 'orchardy'. Touches of sweet mustard in the aftertaste
