Whisky Reviews for Glenfarclas 15-year-old

172 users have left a review for this whisky and scored it an average of 84.60 points

  1. PaulDvorak scored this whisky 87 points Expert Junior

    Balanced, even, with the aroma of banana pudding, sherry freshness, dried apricots, grapes, white currants and caramel, sweet-sour taste with tones of red apples, jam from sour berries, wet wood and dried fruit, a finish of pepper and malt with a light bitterness, a touch of chocolate , tree and sherry.
    Very tasty, fresh and sherry. The balance is at a height that develops in the glass evenly and confidently. Nothing is lost from time to time.

    RATING: 87pts - [n22, t21, f22, b22] → | 86-89: Remarkable |

    Thin, fruitiness as diluted, gammelig - almost a chewy prickling on the tongue - like foul fruit. Bitter notes. almost not drinkable

    Another heavily sherried whisky. I dont like it very much. I think, that you can find much more interesting whiskies in this price range with a more interesting profile. Like lets say... Bunnahabhain 12 or Glen Scotia 15. Both of them are sherried and both of them are better. Glenfarclas 15 to me is just as "clowny" as Glendronach 12.
