Description

Considered among the finest of the Speyside malt distilleries, Glenfarclas is one of the few of its age to still be family-owned, with J&G Grant running it in a traditional manner since 1898. They notably use direct-fired stills to create a rich, weighty spirit. This 12-year-old expression is an excellent introduction to the distillery style, showcasing a heavy sherry influence with notes of dried fruits, nuts, and a touch of oak. This particular bottling celebrates the 12th anniversary of the Saint Andrew's Friendship Group.

Nose
Light and creamy with supple, soft sherry, Manuka honey, hints of smoke, rich oak, and pine resin. Fresh sherried fruit, spicy sweetness, and a touch of sappy oak are also present, along with aromas of dried fruits, nuts, vermouth, and melon.
Palate
Medium-bodied with delightful sherried fruit, date and walnut cake, Oloroso sherry, and hints of earthy forest floor. Notes of malt, toffee apple, and a touch of smoke are present, alongside banana, peach, apricot, red apple, spice, honey, and dark sweets.
Finish
Spicy and long, with notes of allspice, cinnamon, cloves, orange zest, and sherry. It can be a bit dry but is fueled by fruit and sherry, peppered with spice and an ambiguous sweetness.
