Family owned Scotch whisky distilleries are few and far between these days. Distilleries are mostly owned and operated by large corporations but there are exceptions. For five generations the Grant family have run Glenfarclas and their independent nature has led to them having a lot more older stock than many other whisky companies today.
Official Tasting Notes
Nose – Full complex aromas with fruit and full sherried malty tones.Palate – With Sherry, cognac, brandy, fruit, nuts, marzipan (and even icing), this is a wonderfully indulgent Christmas cake, in a glass!
Finish – A whisky you never want to end and it very nearly doesn’t. The finish is exquisite with a real taste of burnt chocolate at the back of your mouth
