Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber gold
Nose
Intense aromas of liquorice, cinnamon, raisins, vanilla and honey, with a delicate hint of peat smoke and earthy undertones; a sweet lift of honey, caramel and toffee.
Palate
Full-bodied and sumptuous on the palate, this Glenfarclas delivers an intense, sherried richness. Flavours of liquorice, cinnamon, raisins, vanilla and honey unfold with caramel and toffee sweetness, punctuated by a whisper of peat smoke. Earthy undertones deepen the core, while the natural cask strength remains wonderfully integrated. A velvety, warming texture leads to a long, smoky finish that lingers with spice and sweetness.
Finish
Gloriously smooth and smoky, with a long, enduring finish that lingers like a warm ember. Sherry-driven sweetness, vanilla and cinnamon persist, lightly braided with peat and earthy undertones, fading to a refined, whisky-kissed glow.
