An excellent introduction to the distillery style. Glenfarclas means Glen of the Green Grassland, and the freshness on the nose is reminiscent of grassland in spring. This is the ‘farclas’ aroma. In 2006 this was named the ‘Best Sherried Whisky’ in the Single Malt World Cup. More recently Glenfarclas 12 Years Old won Gold at the Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival in 2007 and again in 2008.
