Product Description
An unusual departure for the Glenfarclas Family Casks - the 1979 fourth release is from a plain hogshead, making quite a contrast to the first-fill and refill sherry casks that characterise most of the distillery's output.

Tasting Notes
Producer's Tasting Notes
Colour
Beautiful light ray of sunshine.
Nose
A truly amazing nose, so fresh and vibrant, light esters, spice and a fresh fruit salad. 1979 has been a popular year. So far we have bottled two casks for general release, and one exclusively for Spain, hence this is our fourth bottling from 1979 for The Family Casks.
Palate
A great creamy buttery whisky, lovely light caramel toffee, again the texture and flavours of our Glenfarclas fudge.
Finish
Great finish long and very distinguished. A wonderful plain whisky that more than stands out against its heavily sherried counterparts.
