Description

Still in family hands since it was founded, the Glenfarclas Distillery is one of Speyside's independent whisky producers. The Grant family has been running Glenfarclas since 1860, producing an individual Speyside malt that many whisky enthusiasts number as one of their favourites. The water source is melt water from the slopes of Ben Rinnes which runs through granite and heather before reaching Gl ... This is a 1954 vintage Glenfarclas released as part of the distillery's Summer 2014 releases of The Family Casks. It was aged in plain butt cask #1260 and bottled in March 2014.

Nose
Delightful aroma with rich amber color and elegantly oxidized notes. Luscious old fruits like pineapple, dried peach, and apricot, with sweet spices (cumin) and a hint of coal-like smokiness.
Palate
A splendid, silky smooth taste with a warm feel. Superbly balanced, offering real sweetness alongside a lick of treacle, and notes of fresh acorns to mature oak.
Finish
Rich, smooth, powerful, long, and resonant, with a sublime balance for an old whisky.
