Glenfarclas 105 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky 1Lt (ABV 60%)

Glenfarclas 105 is a superb cask strength whisky, with a history that can be traced to 1968. When the original incarnation was released that year, Glenfarclas became the first distillery to release a barrel proof single malt whisky.

The bottling was eventually re-named to 105, referring to its alcohol content in British Proof, which equates now to 60% ABV.

The 105 doesn't carry an age statement presently, making it rare among Glenfarclas bottlings. Although, there are suggestions that it is matured for 8-10 years in a combination of both ex-sherry and ex-bourbon barrels.

Nose - Complex, oaky, apples & pears and a tempting dark toffee sweetness.

Palate - Dry and assertive, develops quickly to reveal a rich spiciness, combined with a hint of oak and sherried fruit.

Finish - Amazingly smooth for the strength, wonderful warming with a lingering spiciness, yet very rounded.
