Day 2 of the 2024 Whisky Show in London began with a perfect calibration whisky. For years, we’ve relied on Glenfarclas to deliver a consistently good sherry whisky. So I knew exactly where to go for our 1st dram of the day, knowing precisely what to expect! 

Glenfarclas 15 year 46%

• Nose – Ahh…. just breathe in that lovely honey, joined by orchard fruits, some pastries, waft of vanilla
• Palate – Some spice, fruity and fabulous… a bit active in the glass, with the dark fruits from the sherry joining the chorus
• Finish – A long dry finish

Was it a sniff, swish, and spit? Of course! Our agenda for the day involved far too many whiskies to do more than experience this way! However, our Glenfarclas booth host completely understood our rationale, happy to have us stop by for a short visit before continuing our journey. 

Where next? Why make use of our dream dram tokens of course! And I had just the place in mind!
