Glenfarclas Sherry Casks Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 57 Year Old · 1956 Vintage

Colour

Deep coppery amber with mahogany depth and ruby-bronze edges, a luminous glow that glistens in the glass, hinting at sherry-matured richness.

Nose

Opulent sherry aroma dominates, with dark raisin, fig and orange zest echoing on a bed of rich toffee. Walnut, almond paste and cedar mingle with spice—cinnamon and clove—while hints of leather and old oak frame a luxurious, fruitcake-sweet nose.

Palate

Silky and opulent, the palate unfolds with deep sherry-cask richness: raisin, fig and dried plum layering over toasted oak. Notes of cocoa, almond and treacle mingle with Christmas spice—clove and cinnamon—carrying to a long, velvety finish with warm, refined oak tannins.

Finish

Long and luxurious, the finish blooms with sherry-soaked richness: dried figs, raisins, orange peel, and dark chocolate drift over toasted oak, with spice and a subtle nuttiness. Velvet sweetness lingers, fading to a warm, refined glow.
