Glenfarclas 30 years old Tasting note

By Miguel at 2011 May,28 in Tasting , Glenfarclas

A 30 years old Glenfarclas whisky from this wonderful family-owned Speyside distillery.

Past winner of the International Spirits Challenge overall trophy. A prize not awarded without good reason, for this is a rich, complex and spicy malt whisky packed with sherry cask character.

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (92): inexistent. sweet, floral, old, melon, nuts, fino sherry, vanilla, wood. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (96): . sweet, floral, wood, candies, violets, honey, melon, vanilla. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (92): no finish. honey, candies, floral, vanilla. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Glenfarclas 30 year with 93 points over 100.
