Glenfarclas 1961 Official 43%

The aroma is a robust old sherry, with notes of raisins, prunes, berry jam, American cherry, black sugar, an earthy leaf mold-like quality, strong leather sensations, herbal liqueur, and a deep woody character reminiscent of a warehouse, with subtle complexity. Upon tasting, it begins with a smooth mouthfeel that expands into a richly aromatic profile. There is a gentle bite, a solid strength, and a textured mouthfeel that adheres slightly to the palate. The flavor combines the deep sweetness of dried fruits and jams, layered with herbal and woody bitterness, a strong earthy and leathery character, and a long, intoxicating finish with hints of old peat. 【Very Good】 This is the official diluted version of Glenfarclas 1961. The sherry character is strong and weighty, with a concentrated aroma of dark fruits and American cherry. Notes of black sugar, leaf mold, leather, herbal woody depth, and a trance-like sensation are all present. Unlike the silky smooth texture of Macallan, this has a slightly gritty mouthfeel with a satisfying bite. It offers a concentrated sweetness balanced by a pleasant tannic finish, with earthy, leathery, and faint old peat undertones. The sherry character is not aristocratic but rather rustic in a good way, making it an impressive and satisfying dram that feels like drinking a classic Glenfarclas.
