Glenfarclas 1966/2012 "Probably Speyside's Finest," Douglas Laing, Cask #9176

gift sample

Nose: Rich and dark. Beautiful as it gains steam, with some elegantly aged sherry. Old leather furniture, polish, and expensive lacquer. Light chocolate and coffee drizzled across toasted maraschino cherries. Chocolate covered fig and date bits. Coffee grinds covering 'purple' - fruit, perhaps. Tip top.

Palate: Oh snap. Bigger and better than the nose. Chocolate, coffee liqueur, and gorgeous espresso cream. A clean, old sherry. Exquisite antique leather. Cherries. Burned sherry. Clean feeling. Very classically structured on the elegant side.

Finish: Water brings out more: fruit and everything else. Gorgeous through and through. 'nuff said
