Glenfarclas Highland Single Malt Scotch 10 Year Old Whisky, 700ml

Product Information

The following indicators should be taken as only a guide and not a set of hard and fast rules. Some "premium" whiskeys really are quite terrible, while some mass market products are good enough to pour into a decanter and serve to the Duke of Edinburgh. A+: A masterpiece and one of the ten best whiskeys of its type. Above five stars. Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Glenfarclas is arguably the example of a single malt that is known and loved inside whisky circles, while remaining largely unknown outside of them. I know very few Scotch enthusiasts who do not think well of the distillery and its products, and at the same time I have encountered very few casual drinkers, the sort who only dabble with Scotch, who have heard of them.

B and B-: Good and above average. The best of the mass market whiskeys fit in this category, as do the bulk of the premium brands. A B- is three stars. The name translates from Gaelic as “valley of green grass,” and the distillery erected in that verdant glen was founded in the 1830s. In 1865, John Grant bought it, and the distillery continues to be owned by his descendants to this day. Part of Glenfarclas’s charm, and what makes it such a fan favorite, is it’s long history as an independent operation. “Independent” does not mean “small,” however: the six stills at Glenfarclas are the biggest in Speyside.

Taste: Stronger on the pastries now with pear tart and toffee covered red apples. Mossiness and soils run throughout and play nicely with the light fruity sherry-led inflections. Quite creamy and perfectly serviceable overall. Nose: A good arrival for 40% ABV. Fruits and patisserie. Orchard apples and pears alongside some hints of pasty and light toffee. There’s a good slog of maltiness in here and a very light influence of sherry. An interesting wispy coastal breeze provides some salinity. Glenfarclas 10 year old is an entry-level expression, bottled at 40% abv, and often recommended as an affordable aperitif single malt. You are responsible for all activities through your account.
