Colour: Amber with dark gold highlights.
Nose: Complex, yet refined, delicately peated, with fresh tempting aromas of marmalade, honey, freshly ground coffee, sherry and nuts. Some oaky tannins.
Flavour: Full-bodied and robust, the sherry and the oak fight for your attention yet neither is overpowering. A powerful nutty smokiness.
Finish: Intense, long lasting, dry smoky and malty. A beautiful dark Belgium chocolate taste at the back f your mouth to complete the flavour of the 25 Years Old.
Comment: A great after-dinner whisky so rich and full that it is a dessert in itself, with a finish that goes on forever.

About Glenfarclas distillery
Glenfarclas means "Valley of the green grass". The distillery is about a mile from the Spey and set on a cattle farm [near] Ben Rinnes from which the distillery's water flows. Barley is grown nearby. The distillery grew out of the farm [but did not really take off till it was bought by a neighbour, John Grant in 1865]. The site, variously known as Glenfarclas, or as Recherlich is not far from the village of Marypark in the Ballindalloch area.
The distillery is large and successful [and] is the business of a wholly private, family-owned company J & G Grant. John and George Grant are not connected (except perhaps distantly) to any of the other whisky-making Grants and regard theirs as the most truly independant of all Scottish distilleries.
The distillery was founded in 1836 and has been in the family since 1865. Its still-house is modern and its stills the biggest on Speyside. They are heated by gas flame. A substantial proportion of the whisky is aged in first-use sherry cask, some in re-fill sherry casks and some in plain wood.
