Reviewed December 2021Baking spice aromas lead the nose. The palate opens with lemon peel and Granny Smith apple tartness. Adding water pulls out mild nutty tones, finishing long with nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. (KN)

Whisky Advocate
Weighty and deep. Instantly seductive: vanilla pod, rich fruits, the smell of fur coats. A femme fatale of a malt. A base of crisp malt mixes with oak to give balance and structure. Water brings out apple leaf, even a little grassiness. The palate is broad and balanced, with real sweetness and a tongue-coating quality which softens to dried fruit, earthy density, with a whiff of smoke. Redolent with the aroma of a dunnage warehouse. A class act. (DB, Fall 2015)
Notes
Glenfarclas 17 Year Old is produced at the historic Glenfarclas Distillery in Speyside, licensed since 1836 and owned by the Grant family since 1865. Known for its traditional methods, the distillery uses direct-fired stills and matures whisky exclusively in ex-Oloroso Sherry casks from Jerez. The 17 Year Old expression, bottled at 43% ABV, offers rich sherried character with notes of cocoa, citrus, and fruitcake.
