Glenfarclas 15 YO
This 15 Year old single malt is from the renowned Glenfarclas Distillery. Glenfarclas has been producing whisky for more than 180 years in the heart of the Highland region in Scotland.
Glenfarclas was founded in 1836 and has been family owned and operated ever since. It is well known for its commitment to traditonal whisky-making methods and its refusal to use modern technology in the process. They have their own floor maltings and still use traditional Scottish peat to dry the malted barley.
Glenfarclas 15 is aged in a combination of European and American oak casks that have previously held sherry. This helps to give Glenfarclas whiskies their signature deep amber colour and complex flavour profile.
On the nose, Glenfarclas 15 Year Old Single Malt has notes of honey, definite sherry complexity and bold spices. The palate has a delicious sweetness, a big boozy fruit cake kiss on the lips and a warming long finish with a whiff of smoke.
It’s bottled at 46% ABV because this was the strength that George Grant’s grandfather preferred it at.Â
This is a classic Highland whisky and an excellent choice for any whisky lover.
