Glenfarclas 21 Year Old

Nose (undiluted) Powerfully minty! menthol cigarette taste (but in a good way). Some medical bandages too. Palate (undiluted) Huge sherry! Da bomb! Oak abounds too. Salty milk chocolate. Finish (undiluted) Mint leaves, peppercorns, basil, lemon and pistachio flourish.

A very tempting nose with fruit, soft vanilla and parfume like rose leaf. A bit one sided palate, not much complexity to me. The finish is short, but pleasant. I think 15 yo Glenfarclas is much better than 21 yo. The older isn't always or even most of the time the better.

Sampled in a large cognac glass with a tiny splash of water. Nose: big, sherry, ginger, spice, Scottish tablet, vanilla. Taste: dark chocolate, digestive biscuits, nutty, toffee, with a smooth burst of flavours. Finish: Long, persistent, pleasing with good finesse. A classy dram for a good price.

Nose: Lots of nose, oak and harsh wood. Of course vanilla, nuts and sherry.Taste: Again, harsh, wood, strong and bold. Bubbly and lovelySummary: Lots of character, peppery, very nice balance. Light and a feeling of summer. Smooth and complex. Not that much sherry as hoped but still a great whisky.

I had a shot of this this in a bar and was very impressed. In Canada I have to pay $125 for a bottle, so they corrected the price upwards :), but i'll still make it my next bottle. You guys, enjoy this bargain!

This is my absolute FAVORITE whiskey, by far. Amazing finish.

Very nice dram worth more than it costs in my opinion. The nose is dying good!
