Rich bright gold
Lots of toffee on the nose, alongside pear drops. Quite a dry nose. This is a light whisky that dances across your palate. Very fresh with some deep sweetness apparent at the back of the mouth.
It's a whisky that does appear to open up significantly with a little air,and is much richer after being in the glass for several minutes. More heathery notes apparent.
A long lingering finish with a little smoky aftertaste.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich bright gold, with a warm, sunlit honey hue and subtle amber glints.
Nose
Toffee-led aroma with bright pear drops, a dry, light bouquet that stays buoyant and fresh. As it opens with air, delicate heathery notes emerge and a deeper sweetness lingers, hinting at the generous sherry maturation of this 41-year-old Glenfarclas single cask.
Palate
Light on the palate, it dances across the tongue with bright freshness and a streak of sweetness at the rear. As it breathes in the glass, it unfurls into richer sherry depth, with whispers of toffee and pear drops and growing heathery notes. The finish is long and elegant, finishing with a gentle smoky echo.
Finish
Long, refined finish that clings with quiet grace. A delicate, smoky whisper trails the palate, braided with lingering sherry sweetness and heathery warmth, slowly fading to a soft, resonant aftertaste.
