Отзывы на Glenfarclas 1995 (WB 87.47, 193 оценки) расходятся: часть текстов хвалит чистый refill-sherry профиль и соотношение цены и качества, часть — жалуется на «уставшие» бочки, закрытость и избыток дуба.
развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах видно разделение. Положительная сторона: один из отзывов называет этот розлив «bang for your buck cask strength and clean sherry bottling»; ещё один отзыв отмечает, что refill-выдержка даёт «balanced and complex whiskies, like this one»; другой отзыв описывает «very great sherry maturation that does not kill the character», «complex and interesting» и удивляется, что виски ещё можно купить по разумной цене; один из отзывов — «A Glenfarclas as I wish him! Neat old, well-balanced… clear buy recommendation»; ещё один отзыв — «Beautiful citrus notes… refined refill profile… Complex and fully matured. Beautiful dram». Также ещё несколько отзывов хвалят олоросо-составляющую и фруктово-пряный характер, а один из отзывов называет его «high-quality, exciting and great whisky right from the start» с «Lots of sherry influence, lots of harmony».
Критическая сторона: ещё один отзыв — «Tired casks, sharply tannic and over-oaked»; другой отзыв — «The barrels seem to be exhausted… Much overpriced»; один из отзывов — «Without water, it is very closed and more on the woody side, which gives the impression of sapped barrels… good but nothing special»; ещё один отзыв — «rather disappointing» по сравнению с другими розливами GF; другой отзыв — «In purity it is too closed and spicy, and even slightly alcoholic», хотя «redeems itself with a generous addition of water». Несколько отзывов сходятся на том, что вода идёт на пользу и что при 57.3% алкоголь ощутим; один из отзывов прямо пишет: «Good whisky with lots of re-fill character which is fun to explore but will surely disappoint some people».

Tasted alongside the 25 ob is inferior. In purity it is too closed and spicy, and even slightly alcoholic. It redeems itself with a generous addition of water but always remains two steps below 25 ob

A very interesting, if not that drinkable whisky. I have not quite experienced a nose so perfumed, but not soapy at all elsewhere.

Nose: first lemon and orange peel, already muffige and earthy oak, a touch of nut and honey, quite alcoholic, water and time help immensely. There are toasted bread, tobacco raisins, floral perfume sweetness added. He has a very own character but far from what you would expect from a> 20Y Sherry Hogshead whisky in CS. But that's why it's something special. Taste: strong alcoholic onion, honey and light fruits, very warm finish with brown sugar and snappy wood (but hardly bitterness), medium-long - sweet and warm. Again, water is good! Still slightly tingling, notes of still-bright unripe cherries, citrus fruits, orange peel and some dark chocolate on the finish. Tasty but not as complex and diverse as the nose. The beautiful woody oak is what stays with the medium-long finish the longest. Good whisky with lots of re-fill character which is fun to explore but will surely disappoint some people.

I really like the nose on this but the pallet is quite hot, even with water, but if you keep going and add more water there is a nice sweet spot at around 50%. Not a bad price this one, relatively speaking.

I like refill matured whiskies from this age (depending of course on the number of previous fills). What it leads to is a good combination of the distillery character and the influence of the cask. It often gives balanced and complex whiskies, like this one.

Disappointing for me as a Glenfarclas fan. The barrels seem to be exhausted. I cannot understand the reviews made here (in contrast to others). No wonder it is still available to buy. Much overpriced. I paid € 80 back then.

Compared to many other GF bottlings (15,21,25 years, 1996/2017 Limited Rare Bottling, 2000 Premium Edition Vintage) rather disappointing. Therefore unfortunately only 82 points.

nose Fresh, sweet with honey, mint and citrus fruits. The alcohol comes out easily but is not unpleasant. Refill sherry is subtly but deliciously integrated, raisins and brown cane sugar, with dried plums. The dark forest honey, which is typical for me, comes with it. Slightly bitter sherry, that was Oloroso? A very great sherry maturation that does not kill the character and the whisky with dark sherry at all. Extremely dangerous to be very drinkable, considering the smell. taste Soft and round, but still with good strength. The alcohol gives strength but is very well integrated. The same aromas as in the nose, nice, slightly drier and bitter (refill?) Sherry that supports the typical aromas of dark forest honey and a little bakery, but by no means overshadows. Complex and interesting, there is caramel and a little cinnamon, and also some Moroccan tea with mint and sugar. Then again sherry aromas such as raisins and dried plums, also a touch of medjool dates, nice and sticky, sweet and soft. Fresh bread and on rising bread dough in the background, that's interesting ... Exit Medium length with a slight tickle on the tongue. Tart, slightly bitter with sherry, forest honey and light mint and pepper. Conclusion A very tasty piglet, I'm surprised that you can still buy it at a reasonable price ?! Yes, it is not a family cask, but it is still really tasty and is certainly worth considering about the large bottle. If only the bottle wasn't so ugly ... N-91, T-90, F-89 for a great 90 points

I actually expected more. Without water, it is very closed and more on the woody side, which gives the impression of sapped barrels. With a few drops of water, it opens something and becomes fruity, but still doesn't knock my socks off. It falls into the easy drinking category, good but nothing special

A Glenfarclas as I wish him! Neat old, well-balanced, not colored, not cool filtered and the whole thing still in decent cask strength of 57.3%. With this whisky you can not go wrong and for a good 90 euros this drop is a clear buy recommendation for me. More whisky for the money is just not possible. Also, I think you should support Glenfarclas as one of the very last private distilleries and buy such whiskys. There are almost 180 years of experience in it :)

Pleasant oloroso maturing, big sherry, fruity and spicy, but oak slightly less than it's age.

He does not pick me up somehow. I expected something more. Good drinkable but somehow not so exciting for me. I do not need a bottle of it.
JoshNRWConnoisseur8824 jun 2022 12:24 am
88.5 Just quick cues after an online tasting that is a lot of fun but not meant to analyze or properly discover a whisky. A high-quality, exciting and great whisky right from the start. I won't even be able to discover it today, but for me it's the (unspectacular) highlight of the online tasting. Lots of sherry influence, lots of harmony and on the palate it's probably a point down, but that's at least a solid 88 to 89 points.

S 7 The oak tannin is well hidden beneath the high abv, it’s like an aged version of Glenfarclas 105, with more oak influences and less heated spices. As usual, the Sherry is not dominating the distillate so there’s still plenty of fruits, menthol, and malt to observe. 81-85 - Another dram welcomed

Abundant vanilla. Quite shy, the high abv posed quite a challenge for the nose to dissect the nuances. Heather honey. Hot cinnamon bun. Some dried fruits: oranges, peaches. Drops of water release green tea, more prickling spices, toasted nuts, and menthol.
Вкус
86
Peppery landing that quickly mellows out and gives space to the Sherry sweetness. Mouthcoating, it's so creamy it doesn’t feel like 57.3%. Cashews. Almonds. Cola cubes. A touch of menthol at the back. Water really drives out the bitterness from the oak. Still pleasant but could be less quaffable if you like your Glenfarclas sweet.

Medium finish. Drying oak. A touch of malt and dried berries lingering.

Beautiful citrus notes; such as oranges, tangerines and yellow fruits; very fruity and honeyed. Full bodied, round and oily mouthfeel. Its not the typical dark first fill sherry Monster, it is a more refined refill profile, for sure there are several refill hogsheads involved. Underneath you have the typical earthyness, moist humus and rotten leaves. Long and expressive finish. Takes water very well. Complex and fully matured. Beautiful dram, love it.

For me Glenfarclas is very often a difficult distillery. No full review on this, but i want to point out one thing on the nose: i get very strong smells of Asparagus peelings
dRamboConnoisseur8724 dec 2017 10:55 pm
turns out quite fruity for a Farclas but is not overloaded with sherry-with a few drops of water quite pleasing, I like better than the standard bottling 21 - but I need more than a dram but not necessarily
