- Description
- Glenfarclas' 21-year-old Speyside single malt presented as a gift set alongside Ian Buxton's whisky reference book. Sherried cask maturation brings dark stone fruits, warming spice, and chocolate richness to the spirit, creating the fullness expected from two decades in cask. Smooth and rounded on the palate with a lingering, warming finish. A substantial gift pairing knowledge with a genuine benchmark Speyside expression.
