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. Chocolate cocoa beans that have been dipped into treacle. 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. Medium finish rather short, but for the 50 year old experience a true whisky to behold. ...

Glenfarclas Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival. Cola Cubes, sweet & dry on the nose, an interesting combination. Light tannins, more from Burgundy wine than a big Bordeaux. Almost like a polished segment of sandalwood, a very fragrant whisky. Smooth & very palatable, leaves you wanting more. Not as dry on the palate as it is on the nose. Long, delicate, lightly leathery, a very typical Glenfarclas ...

Glenfarclas Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival. Powerful, treacle toffee, fudge. Like a freshly made pan of tablet & licking thick vanilla goo off a metal spoon. Very fresh, a lot less sweet on the palate than you were experiencing on the nose. Grassy earthy notes also pushing their way through. Medium finish Glenfarclas, lovely taste of fresh cut grass. ...

Glenfarclas Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival. Autumn straw gold. The inside of a warehouse 3 at Glenfarclas, pipe tobacco present (unlit). Fresh & fruity, a freshly baked apple strudel. Would recommend a drop of water in this to open it up & reveal more delicate fruitiness. Not a typical Glenfarclas but a fine dram. ...
