Nosing: Sherry Plum Date Honey and a distant earthy Floral note

Taste: Caramel Oak Pepper and the Floral carries over from the nose

Finish: Cake Almonds Leather a cooling Mint element and an ever-so-slight Sweet that one really has to wait for

Comment: The Glenfarclas 25-year old presents several dimensions of sweetness on the nose. Fruit, sugar/honey, traditional sherry influences - all distinctly present. A soft, earthy floral scent is barely present as a background scent, but merges perfectly with this whisky's complex sweetness.

Absolutely no alcohol bite whatsoever. "Flatter" is an apt adjective, unfortunately. The soft earthy influences hinted at on the nose take over through the finish, as opposed to the shining fruit-forward first impressions this whisky offers. A worth-waiting -for and much-needed sweetness appears at the farthest extent of the finish, saving the flavor profile from falling short of its olfactory promise.

The strength of this whisky is its subtle, contradictory influences that stand in the background of both the nose and the flavor profile, waiting to be discovered.
