Bright and delicate amber Glenfarclas shines in the glass. On the glass wall of my Premium Snifter, a thick streak has formed from which dissolve a variety of wide drops and search their long lengths back into the glass. Even from afar, a beguiling aroma is noticeable. Subtle roasting aromas are mixed with spicy wood elements, dark apple juice is permeated by a fresh peppermint or slight menthol note. Subtle smoky hints of floral, grassy impact follow the dark apple note, again fine roasted aromas in combination with almonds and hazelnuts to advantage. Dark oranges rise, a hint of sour citrus appears before caramelized sugar creates a sweet component. I imagine, here and there, a minimal breath of sulfur to perceive, the nose is increasingly flooded by dark sweetness, the fruit flavors change constantly. Abrasion of orange peel, grapefruit, fermented dark apple juice, peach appear alternately, the fruit notes are rather tart and heavier. Aromatic wood tones and meadow herbs play together, the initially minimal sulfur note becomes more intense and dominant. Slowly it's time for the first sip ...

Herb and spicy, the first sip flows over the tongue. Amazingly, creamy wood elements suddenly produce a slight tingling and biting sensation on the tongue and lips. Again, the dark and slightly tart fruit flavors are immediately on the spot. Dark apple juice, creamy apricots and old oranges represent a wonderful fruit mix. The taste is carried by dark and slightly tart aromas, meadow herbs and again floral hints are again, from lightly burned sugar dissolves a subtle smoke, a spice mixture unfolds suddenly their full Aroma while the entire palate fills with chubby heat. With dark walnuts and tangy spicy wood tones, the taste slowly turns into the aftertaste.

Tart wood tones in combination with fresh peppermint and menthol influences start the reverberation. A subtle sharpness envelops the tongue, still chubby warmth dresses the palate out. The dark fruit flavors are powerfully in the aftertaste, meadow herbs and oriental spices produce with the mentioned menthol note an incredible freshness. The slight tingling and biting on the tongue and on the lips increases again, the variety of flavors also increases. Creamy and slightly charred pieces of wood float in the mouth, dark walnut splinters rest on the tongue, and at the end of the reverberation a fine smoky note is created again.
