- Description
- Glenfarclas's youthful 9-year-old single malt matured in ex-oloroso sherry casks displays the distillery's characteristic weighty spirit despite its age. The nose carries soft aromas of dried fig, dates, and red grapes, while the palate reveals gentle spice and nuttiness of almond, cardamom, and clove. The sherry influence rounds the texture, making this an approachable entry point to Glenfarclas's sherry-matured house style.
