Tasting note
- Appearance : acajou soutenu à relets verdâtres.
- Nose : riche, complexe. Le vieillissement en fût de sherry dans ce qu'il a de plus abouti. Marqué par le pruneau, la cerise à l'eau de vie, des épices chatoyantes, une pincée de sel et des notes de bois précieux. Il évoque également la datte, l'orange et le cuir. Il évolue sur les fruits rouges et le zan.
- Palate : énorme, d'une exceptionnelle richesse. Une fine couche boisé légèrement brûlée recouvre de pulpeuses notes de fraise des bois et de chocolat noir. Elle se développe sur le lilas mauve, la cardamome et la menthe fraîche. Le camphre ajoute une touche médicinale.
- Overall : interminable, suave. Sa texture est d'une grande délicatesse. Elle révèle le vieux bois, la poudre de cacao et la pêche de vigne. Elle se prolonge sur le tilleul, la noix grillée et la figue fraîche.

The brand
An independent distillery since the 19th century, Glenfarclas can claim to produce one of the most traditional single malts in the world. The same type of stills have been used here since 1836; its single malts are aged predominantly in ex-sherry casks, even though these cost ten times more than their American counterparts; running the distillery requires at least 13 people, with the manipulation of its 52,000 casks being performed entirely by hand. The Family Casks collection, the perfect illustration of this long tradition, brings together 43 successive vintage bottlings dating from 1952 to 1994, each one a single cask bottled at cask strength.
