Single sherry hogshead cask 1838. 50 year old single malt Scotch distilled in 1959 & bottled August 2009 yielding just 147 bottles. Considered to be one of the very best in the series.

Glenfarclas Glenfarclas Distillery was established by Robert Hay in Speyside in 1836. John Grant purchased Glenfarclas in 1865 & it has remained in the ownership of the Grant family ever since. The interior of the visitor centre is stunning, the walls are lined with the original oak panels salvaged from a lounge on the liner SS Empress of Australia when she was scrapped 1952. Ace sherry casks underpin the ethos of Glenfarclas malt whisky, having released its first cask strength single malt way back in 1968 & in 1973 became the third to open a distillery visitor centre. Glenfarclas Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival. The nose is still emanating some fresh aromas, with heavy oloroso sherry punching its way through. A strong alcohol nose, very surprising for the age. However, the taste is nothing like the nose, very mellow & pleasing, textures similar to a fine old port, very smooth & heavy tannins mixed together with wonderful sweetness. A whisky you really can enjoy, savour & appreciate time after time. A very long aftertaste that lingers for hours. Christmas flavours ever present
- spice, icing, alcohol soaked fruit & of course sherry.

Leathery & a hint of plum brandy, a surprising combination of aromas for the age. Incredibly smooth, rich dark chocolate, rather bitter on the offset, giving way to heavily sherried dryness.

Not as dry on the palate as it is on the nose. Long, delicate, lightly leathery, a very typical Glenfarclas ...
