Description

Glenfarclas 12 Year Old is a classic Speyside single malt whisky, renowned for its sherried character. It is aged in European oak casks, often Oloroso sherry casks, and offers a balance of rich dried fruit, warm spice, and toasted oak. This expression is an excellent introduction to the distillery's traditional Highland malt style, which is family-owned and uses direct-fired stills. [2, 4, 5, 9, 11, 13, 17]

Nose
Light and creamy with a mix of supple, soft sherry and Manuka honey. Hints of smoke, rich oak, and a little pine resin. Also notes of fruit, dark sweets like caramel and toffee, vermouth, and melon. [2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17]
Palate
Medium-bodied, with notes of date and walnut cake, Oloroso sherry and hints of earthy forest floor. A beautiful note of malt, with toffee apple and a touch of smoke. Also complex fruit like banana, peach, apricot, red apple, spice, honey, and a mild earthiness. [2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 13, 17]
Finish
Spicy and long, notes of allspice, cinnamon and cloves, with orange zest and sherry. A bit dry but fueled by fruit and sherry and peppered with spice and an ambiguous sweetness. Lingering spiciness and honey. [2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17]
