Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh golden sultana, blossom honey and orange zest mingle with vanilla tablet, polished oak and a hint of cocoa dust. Palate: Silky bursts of toffee apple, malted biscuit and ripe plum sweep across the tongue, chased by cinnamon-spiked chocolate, roasted almond and a lift of candied citrus. Finish: Medium-long, warming and lightly drying—lingering sherry-soaked fruitcake, soft oak tannin and a final flourish of vanilla-malt sweetness.

Relish sherried Speyside vibrancy with Glenfarclas 17 Year Old – 2006 “Family Casks” S24 (Summer 2024 Release).
Filled on 24 March 2006 into a single Sherry Butt #3418 and nurtured in the Grant family’s traditional dunnage warehouses, this lively dram was drawn at natural cask strength for the Summer 2024 parcel. Bottled non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 599 individually numbered bottles reveal Glenfarclas’s orchard-fruit brightness amplified by layers of raisin, toffee and gentle oak spice.
