Glenfarclas The Family Casks #2578 Whisky 33 Year Old · 1973 Vintage

Colour

Dark amber with mahogany depth and a warm copper glow.

Nose

Fresh and lively on the nose, vanilla pods rise from the oak, a delicate wisp of smoke drapes the frame, and bright citrus zest threads through the sweetness. Subtle sherry influence adds warmth without heaviness, with hints of dried fruit lingering in a polished, inviting aroma.

Palate

Bright and lively on the palate, it opens with vanilla sweetness, a whisper of smoke, and crisp citrus zest. The sherry cask adds warmth and depth without heaviness, leading to a polished mid-palate with oak, spice, and a long, refined finish at natural cask strength.

Finish

Long, refined finish with vanilla sweetness giving way to a delicate veil of smoke, bright citrus and a whisper of sherry warmth. Light oak and a silky fade carry the memory, inviting another contemplative sip.
