Glenfarclas reviews

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…

I agree with the reviews, this really delivers everything you could want from a luxurious, rich, sherried whisky. It is the epitome of that style of malt but also has smoke and peat, and wood all in a…

This is my first sampling into the Glenfarclas line. Guess I'll work my way up from the bottom.Nose: Lots of Sherry, Pear, and cereals - Barley and Malt. A very pleasant nose.Palate: Christmas spices …
