Glenfarclas 21 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

is made from freshly harvested barley, which is steeped in water sourced from the heather-clad slopes of the Ben Rinnes mountain. The crystal-clear spring water, which cascades down the 3,000-foot mountain through peat and granite, is the lifeblood of the Glenfarclas Distillery. After the barley is malted, it is milled and mashed before being fermented using 100% cultured distiller's yeast. The wash — the liquid that remains after fermentation — is then distilled twice through Glenfarclas's copper-pot stills. While most distilleries use steam-powered stills (because they are more efficient and preserve the lifespan of the still), Glenfarclas Distillery continues to use traditional direct-heated stills in order to preserve the traditional flavors of the whisky. After distillation, the heads and tails (the whisky produced at the beginning and end of the distillation process) are discarded, and only about 15% of the distillate — the heart of hearts — is preserved for maturation.

Tasting Notes

Aroma of butterscotch and dried fruits, which gives way to full-bodied and rounded notes of chocolate, cherries and a touch of smoke and honey. Lingering finish has hints of toffee and caramel.
