Sitting in the glass this has beautiful lacy legs climbing up the sides of the glencairn. A swirl coats the glass and takes minutes time to settle. Nose is fruit heavy, with a backing of sugar. If you put pears, cherries, green and red apples and honeydew in a pot with a cup of brown sugar and tuned the burner on low, after 15 minutes it would smell like this. It’s so varied and balanced that it keeps me coming back, even when the glass is almost empty. Smooth, rich and creamy on the tongue. Obviously sherried, but not one-note. Dried fig, cherry, vanilla bean, caramel and honeysuckle dance across the palate before a rather quick transition to dry grass/straw keeps the sweetness in check. Like the nose - balanced. I like all of the Glenfarclas that I’ve had, but this is by far my favorite. If you see one, grab it; you wont be disappointed. Personal note - Review #200. Crazy blessed to be able to sample such a variety, not only by being in the right place at the right time with a little cash, but mostly because of the love and understanding of a wonderful wife who tolerates even my frivilous hobbies. Please note that I appreciate every comment left over the years, and I continue to learn from, and be humbled by, the vast knowledge so many in this community freely share with others solely for love of the craft and a desire to see it continue for future generations.
