Glenfarclas 1979 The Family Casks #8072
Nose: Wow, very light. Pure strawberries and raspberries in vanilla cream. Malt and grssy. Hints of rubber and some menthol. Red fruit with lemon juice on it. Waxy-smoke (or smokey wax) and some roasted nuts.
Palate: Light and some bitter wood. A little oily. Bitterness in sort of a stale, weak coffee way. Silky. More on lingonberries and the kind of wood that you get from clean ex-bourbon barrels. Apples and bitter pecans. Even milk-fat.
Finish: The bitterness gives way to a very subtle chocolate-coffee-waxy-smoke. Pleasant red fruit and grass, and it remains very oily. More milk-fat and butter, almost like praline ice cream that’s melted at room temperature.
