Glenfarclas 1962 Family Casks SP15
- Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
- Distillery Bottling
70cl / 43.4%
Distilled six decades ago, in 1962, this is a little piece of history from the acclaimed family-owned distillery.
Further, Cross fingers, our dear Dutch friends deserve it, after all they’re supposed to sink into the Atlantic anytime soon according to some lousy press… Colour: gold. Nose: modern and very nice. Lovely cappuccino and nougats, having said that this could be any Distillery up there. Butterscotch, Guinness, malt extracts, green walnuts… With water: ? Bitter beers. Mouth (neat): a tad oak-forward, frankly. Bitter, oak spices… Gets a little too spicy, difficult. With water: to be fair, someone very thirsty after having crossed the Sahara on a camel would drink a whole glass of this. Otherwise, I think it’s a very heavy spicy drop.

Finish: dry, grassy, a little unpleasant in my opinion, a little too concoctiony. Comments: something must have happened. Like, some alien life form has stolen this sample at WF Towers and replaced it with some Kazakh turnip and allspice eau-de-vie aged in some IBC with toasted pinewood chips. Or a wrecked sample indeed.
SGP:461 – 78 points.
Meanwhile, Let’s cut to the chase here, it was downward spiral anyway. But accidents happen and as always, all a matter of individual taste. What’s more, this many sherry monsters within one single session might not be a good idea. Sherry fatigue? Pace e salute.
HOLD ON. Would you believe this, as soon as I was finished with this spiralling session, a new Glenfarclas rang at the door (so to speak). And since I hadn’t published my session yet, I could just add this wee newcomer at the last minute…
