Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold. No freshish sherry, apparently
air Nose
ah, glazed apples and marzipan, plus a touch of sunflower oil and chamomile. These unsherried Glenfarclas weren’t very common back then, and neither were the Macs by the way. Goes on with some dandelions, nectar, beeswax, and a pleasant wee sourness. Not-too-ripe greengages? With water: a grassy, waxy and chalky Speysider that would have brought body and structure to many a blend
restaurant Palate
very good, going to show that Glenfarclas is a big, fat, and potent distillate. Oily fruits, grapefruits, citrons, peppery oils (grapeseed, olive)… With water: cracked pepper, paraffin, greens, watermelons, pumpkin purée, grapefruits, and some bread. Always love bread in my whisky
timer Finish
rather long, fresh, vegetal and citrusy, always with this dry, oily background
