TASTING NOTES

• Colour: Polished dark teak with a subtle gleam - richly hued but not opaque. 
• Nose: Soft and smooth, the nose opens with aromas of stewed fruits and traditional Scottish dumpling. A delicate thread of Speyside peat - drawn from the slopes of Ben Rinnes - adds a lightly earthy, smoky nuance. The sweetness deepens, revealing layers of fruit compote, honeyed malt and a quiet richness.
• Palate: Dark chocolate laced with sherry-soaked dried fruits gives way to a refreshingly spicy tingle on the palate leading to a bold thread of rich, roasted coffee. The mouthfeel is luxuriously coated in treacle toffee, creating a full-bodied, indulgent texture.
• Finish: The finish lingers and effortlessly clings to the roof of the mouth. Delicate peat resurfaces, rolling gently across the tongue with a green, grassy echo of Speyside origins. This is Glenfarclas to its core.

John Grant says of this release

“As Chairman of a family-owned distillery I am committed to overseeing the production of our exceptional malt whisky, just as my forefathers did before me. We take great pride in maintaining complete control over every aspect of production, preserving our time-honoured traditional methods - most notably, the use of direct-fired stills, which creates a robust and full-bodied spirit.
 
Remarkably, this particular cask has been maturing almost as long as I’ve been alive. Releasing it now marks a true milestone, and one that Callum and I have considered carefully and with great respect for its legacy.”
 
Callum Fraser, Distillery Manager at Glenfarclas said “This is true Glenfarclas and this expression captures the very DNA of the distillery. What we did 30 or 40 or even 70 years ago is very much what we still do today. The warehouses are still here, holding decades of stories in their walls. At the heart of it all, tradition remains key.”
