    Not sure what happened to my previously written review. I guess I'll try to re-type it up: The Glenfarclas 105 is considered an "overproof" whisky, not necessarily a true "cask strength", as the whisky… read more

    The third Glenfarclas from the core range (after the 10 and 15 year old) is this '105'. The number refers to the fact that it's 'overproof' with an ABV of 60%. The bottle has no age statement, but I've… read more

    This is a muscular malt. Big in every way: Big Sherry, Big Toffee, Big Raisin, Big Alcohol. This is like the 15yr on steroids! But with just as warm a heart. This is Jimi Hendrix and the 15 is Segovia. … read more

    Cask strength punch with the expected smoothness and balance of Glenfarclas. I find this dram much easier to tame down the alcohol with some water compared to Aberlour a'bunadh. Toning down the alcohol… read more
