Nose: much lighter sherry nose than the 15, but still there. Red apples, orange again, caramel at the back. Brown sugar, cookie dough. Banana (stolen from jack)
Palate: much more light than the 15, subtler sherry notes with more shortbread, herbal, thin in a nice way. Archie at luvians said refreshing and I totally agree. Incredibly well balanced fruitiness, nuttiness and wood.
Finish: long, becomes fruitier and greener with the grassy glenfarclas spirit coming back through again.
This might beat out the 15 for how delicate and balanced it is. So light without sacrificing fruitiness and sherry depth. May be a new favourite.
