Portrait: What makes the Glenfarclas 12 year old special.

The Glenfarclas 12 year old comes from one of Scotland's most traditional and independent distilleries. Glenfarclas was founded in 1836 and has been continuously owned by the Grant family since 1865. Today, John Grant is the fifth generation to run the distillery, ensuring that the family tradition is continued with passion and care.

The Glenfarclas distillery is one of the few to have produced almost continuously since its founding. This continuity is a key reason for the comprehensive and diverse range of bottlings that delights connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike. Glenfarclas stands for artisanal production with a focus on quality and authenticity.

The 12 year old Glenfarclas represents a classic expression of the house and is an integral part of the range. The distillery places great emphasis on traditional production methods and maturation in select casks, which give the whisky its characteristic style. As an independent family business, Glenfarclas combines many years of experience with a great attention to detail - a combination that is evident in every bottle.

Tasting Notes: This is what the Glenfarclas 12 year old tastes like

  • Nose: Pleasantly soft with aromas of honey and gentle sherry, accompanied by nutty tones, abundant oak, and a subtle smoky nuance
  • Palate: Elegant and balanced with notes of dates and nuts – the sherry is present, followed by ripe apples, toffee, and a subtle hint of smoke
  • Finish: Long and spicy, characterized by cloves, cinnamon, and allspice. Orange and sherry notes emerge on the finish, harmoniously rounding off the finish

Wie bei Glenfarclas nicht anders erwartet. Preis/ Leistung absolut stimmig. In der Nase sehr fruchtig/ blumig. Am Gaumen fruchtig mit einer gewissen Süße. Langes Finale. Für mich ein Whisky der immer geht.
