Commercial Description
Tasting note: Deep amber gold. Another example of a sherried whisky that needs decent airing. Restrained at first, gradually yielding a nutty, mildly salty aroma that?s more Amontillado than Oloroso or PX, which also means it?s a drier nose-feel; It's peppery too. 10-15 minutes air contact draws out subtle fruity undertones. Some found this Fino-like on the palate ? again, there?s a delightful salty-nutty interplay with light dried fruits, pepper and finally, fine tannins, balsa wood and hints of liquorice root through the aftertaste. As an intense and alternative expression of Glenfarclas, this is fascinating; flavour-wise, perhaps drawing comparisons with the slightly leaner style of the official 17 year old? It handles minimal water and will make for a great aperitif.
Alc 52.6%
