Glenfarclas 10 years old Tasting note

By Miguel at 2011 May,22 in Tasting , Recommended , Glenfarclas

“ This fabulous speyside sherried whisky is really delicious with outstanding oloroso sherry notes on its taste. You must get it.”

Once upon a time, there was a whisky distillery in the Speyside managed by the same family for generations. And still is, Glenfarclas is one of the last family distilleries out there, in a world of shark-like giant enterprises.

This Glenfarclas 10 years old is a straw-gold , delicately light, sweet and malty dram leaving a long slightly spicy finish. Always impeccably well-made, this is a whisky that always delivers in quality.

If you like the Macallan, this single malt is something you shouldn't miss at all.

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (88): inexistent. sweet, deep oloroso, nutty, citrus, tobacco, wood, spices. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (96): . sweet, wood, honey, tobacco, nuts, citrus, spices. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (88): no finish. wood, honey, spices. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Glenfarclas 10 year with 91 points over 100.
