Glenfarclas 12 Years

The character of this malts is sweetish and delicately smoky with a hefty onion. It softens with water and the sherry unfolds. There is some smoke in the taste. The finish is medium long. In metal tin!

Comment: I bought this thinking it'd be what they call a 'sherried whisky', but it wasn't at all. Quite good, but I didn't detect any of the usual for such a whisky.
