Sherried 15 year old dram from Glenfarclas, boasting oodles of dried fruit notes. It’s bottled at 46% ABV simply because this was the strength that George Grant’s grandfather preferred it at. Happily, this also results in the Speysider boasting a big, juicy, Christmas cake profile. A fabulously complex Scotch while also being easily drinkable.
Nose Intense, powerful sherry. Cream sherry, certainly – Pedro Ximenez? almost… a touch of peppermint? An almost rancio quality to this. Smells older than 15.
Palate Raisins, more sherry, orange peel, walnuts, dates.
Finish Incredibly long, complex, more of the walnuts again.
Overall Water draws out sweetness. This is Christmas cake, not whisky. Simply astonishing.
