Description

Still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside's independent whisky producers. The Grant family has been running Glenfarclas since 1860, producing an individual Speyside malt that many whisky enthusiasts number as one of their favourites. The water source is melt water from the slopes of Ben Rinnes which runs through granite and heather before reaching Gl. This 15-year-old single malt is part of Glenfarclas' acclaimed Family Cask series, featuring single casks of their distillate bottled at cask strength with no coloring or filtering. Distilled in 2004 and bottled on October 18, 2019, from Sherry Butt #2383, this release yielded 654 bottles worldwide.

Nose
Rich, pungent, apple-driven, with notes of sulfur, honey, toffee, plums, decadent cocoa, pralines, nutty sherry, and syrupy currant. Also features classic rich sherry notes, stewed plums, figs, raisins, caramel, butterscotch, creamy malt, dried fruits, mild nutty spices (cardamom, clove, cinnamon), mocca, leather, and warming spices.
Palate
Rich mouthfeel with some heat. Flavors of apples, pears, almonds, black currant, pepper, raspberry, cocoa, tobacco, and ethanol. Exhibits a pure, deep sherry influence with figs, stewed plums, raisins, initial cinnamon and ginger spice, developing into a massive sherry bomb with rising ginger heat. Notes of antique leather, old furniture, rancio, rich dark stewed fruits, plum jam, dark chocolate bitterness, baking spice, and cereal.
Finish
Long, powerful, and quite hot, with sherry sweetness, pepper, tobacco, and ethanol. Lightly tannic, a bit drying, and not too bitter. Features a medium ginger heat that fades beautifully, coupled with decadent caramel, figs, spiced oak, raisins, and a touch of smoke.
