Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы описывают Glenfarclas 30 как приятный, но неоднозначный виски: часто отмечают древесные и хересные ноты, лёгкое тело и высокую цену как главную претензию.
развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах виски описывают по-разному. Несколько человек отмечают древесные и хересные ноты: дуб, специи, тёмный шоколад, карамель, сухофрукты (сливы, изюм, инжир), а также фруктовые и цветочные оттенки — грушу, яблоко, розу. Часть отзывов говорит о лёгком, водянистом теле и средней или короткой продолжительности финиша, тогда как другие называют его многослойным и «очень хорошим», с акцентом на старую ароматную древесину. Несколько отзывов прямо сравнивают его с 40-летним Glenfarclas и считают, что 30-летний уступает по глубине и качеству, а также отмечают, что возраст не всегда ощущается.
Главная повторяющаяся претензия — цена: виски неоднократно называют переоценённым и не стоящим своих денег, особенно с учётом того, что за меньшую сумму можно найти сопоставимые или лучшие солоды. При этом часть отзывов считает его удачным и приятным, а один — «абсолютно великолепным» с учётом цены. В целом тексты не образуют единого мнения: оценки и впечатления расходятся от разочарования до похвалы.
A perfectly successful dram. At the same time, it is complex and simple at the same time. The lack of pep and the price unfortunately remain significant black spots.
Easy drinkable but overpriced

I don't know which batch the sample was from, but it seems to have been one of the newer, weaker ones. Age is not everything.

Glenfarclas 30 year old SMSW 43%. £30 for 30ml sample consumed March 2023. A 70cl bottle is £625 at today’s prices so I didn’t pay massively over the odds. Dull dark golden yellow. Looks natural. Aroma is chocolatey char, pretty fresh dried apple and ginger, chocolate raisins, slight red plum, increasingly floral pink rose. Later nutmeg and booze. Very pleasant. Loads going on. Body is lightly oily. Taste is watery on impact. I deliberately made this the first of the evening given the low ABV but it’s still very light. Oak tea. A ‘stewed’ sort of impression. Some bitter herbs. Slightly waxy. Hint of leather and spent coffee. Some bitter oak and salty vibes moving into the finish. Ever so slightly tart apple. Pretty average on the palate. The aroma was good on impact but died after a couple of sips. Not a bad whisky by any means but nothing special. I can chalk off £30 to experience but buying a bottle would have been a huge disappointment. 3.45/82
A firm body.
Tasted at the Whisky Show, Budapest 2018.10.27.
Oaky, slightly fruity, some herbs, not bad but disappointing for a 30yo dram

Served directly against the 40-year-old. The 40-year-old can do a little more, but I would certainly never disdain this one. The sherry notes come out much stronger against the aromas from the wood than in the 40-year-old and you can still make out very little of the distillery. It is multi-layered!

It's not so much the sherry that impresses, but rather the old, aromatic wood. Very good!

For a long time he does not come to the 40s. Significantly more wood for less fruit. The oak, however, turns out a lot less bitter than the start suggests.
Considering Price wise, absolutely fabulous. I bought it with best price around 500 USD.

Very oaky and extremely disappointing whisky. In theory, its price is good if we are talking about a 30-year-old single malt, but it is not worth the money. It wasn't worth it, when it was twice as cheap, let alone now. You can buy far better malts for a much smaller amount.
Not as much sherry as expected therefore you get a herbal punch on the first sniff turning into a dark fruit direction. Quite changeable over the time in the glass. I think batches may vary on this one. However a fine malt. There is no comparison with the 40y old concerning depth and quality. Concerning price/performance ratio: 7/10
COLOUR: dark gold, oily body - a very good long-aged single malt, BUT on the level of other good 18 or 21 year olds Single Malts - I would have blindly never guessed him to be 30 years old - a surprisingly strong yet slightly burning character - for such an old sherry whisky, unfortunately, rather one Disappointment and at the crazy prices that are here be called, definitely not worth the money !
