Tasting Notes

This Glenfarclas 1987 Family Cask whisky tantalizes the senses with its enticing aromas of ripe fruits, fragrant florals, and homemade jams, intertwined with the earthiness of freshly cut herbs and grassy notes. A subtle hint of bitumen adds intrigue. Upon tasting, the gentle sherry influence caresses the palate with a velvety vanilla embrace, while a refreshing menthol coolness lingers. As the sip lingers, a surprising note of burnt rubber emerges, lending an astringent quality that lingers beautifully. Matured in a refill sherry hogshead, this 1987 vintage Glenfarclas Family Cask release from 2007 offers a captivating journey through a kaleidoscope of flavors, culminating in a remarkably long and memorable finish.
