Don't you just love the times when you enter a new restaurant or bar and you spot a whisky bottle that you have never even seen before, and then you realize that it is open and they sell glasses of it?; I honestly believe that is one of the greatest pleasures in life.
Well this was the case of a truly lovely bottle of Glenfarclas "100 proof", a 15yo Cask Strength at 57.1%, with a beautiful looking label.
On the nose, it starts with Bbq sauce, sweet prunes, meat spices. It is a sunday Barbecue with Welsh grape juice.
On the palate, i immidiately got the samd Welsh grape juice note. Red fruits, then it became a salty bomb which was tongue scorching. Grapes.
Aftertaste is very cowboy-ish. Hay, tobacco and a long spicy finish. Chocolate cream.
Overall, this was and incredible finding, you can tell by just looking at the label that this one is quite a rarity, and i love when this type of limited whiskies deliver a good experience. My score for it is 92 over 100.
