Glenfarclas 105 Cask Strength

Nose- a berry basket! There is also a hint of esther-like rum barrel that gives it a bit of funk. Very nice nose. Palate- Sweet with almost Fruity Pebbles Cereal notes. That cornucopia of fruitiness prevails with some ripe melon and bramble berries. Finish- turns a tad bitter and is rather quick finish for the proof. Overall- as I transition from American Whiskey to scotch, this fits the bill! The sweeter notes and the buttery mouthfeel hit the high notes. Opened my eyes a bit.

The smell is like lacquered wooden chest, with some sharpness (that's 60% ABV I guess) on the end. The taste is rich but direct - it comes and quickly goes away. There are some sourness and hints of Oloroso. There is something I would describe like dried raisins soaked in rum kind of taste. With drop of turpentine it transfers to generic candied fruit tones. I like the strange sweet body of this whisky, but it needs few sips to properly grasp it. Considering the very generous price tag for this bottle, it's definitely something worth try.

Really enjoy this one. The proof isn’t there at all. So drinkable and enjoyable. A wonderfully made whisky with an amazing sherry component. Really like this one.

Butterscotch, char, oak, sherry
