Description

A great whisky holding all the flavours of all the Glenfarclas in one glass. Being so warming, it's the perfect Hogmanay dram. Don't be afraid of the strength; the smoothness makes the 105 drinkable at cask strength, but adding a little water can fully explore its great depth. This distinctive Glenfarclas Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a superb cask strength offering, with a history tracing back to 1968 when it became the first distillery to introduce a cask strength bottling to its core range. It is bottled at 60% ABV (105 British proof) and is non-chill filtered.

Nose
Complex, oaky, apples and pears, dark toffee sweetness, hazelnuts, leather, dried dark fruit, cocoa, citrus peels, butterscotch, copper, and strawberry shortcake.
Palate
Dry and assertive, with rich spiciness, a hint of oak and sherried fruit. Develops quickly to reveal notes of hazelnuts, leather, dried dark fruit, copper, orange peels, baking spice, cocoa, and a touch of ash.
Finish
Amazingly smooth for its strength, wonderfully warming, with a lingering smokiness and a very rounded character. Long, peppery, and nutty, with notes of cocoa, spice, and fruity sherry.
