Glenfarclas 9

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 53%

This was bottled for the Movember prostate cancer campaign, and came from a pair of Oloroso sherry hogsheads. The nose has notes of roasted almonds, caramel candy, honey, allspice, and toasted oak. The taste is dry and intense with caramel cola, allspice, honey, and a touch of raisins. The finish is short and dry with caramel cola and a hint of spices.
