What it’s like

Glenfarclas’s twelve-year-old takes the family Speyside distillery’s sherry style a step further. With a little more strength and age than the ten, it gains body and depth: dried fruit, toffee, spice and a hint of oak. It keeps the balance and absence of smoke that characterise the house. It is one of the best-value sherried malts, highly recommendable for those who enjoy flavours of raisins, walnuts and caramel.

Nose
Raisins, toffee and walnut, with candied orange and a touch of oak.
Palate
Rounded and rich. Dried fruit, caramel, soft spice and malt.
Finish
Medium to long, warm and spicy, with hints of sherry.
