The “Family Cask Series” from Glenfarclas… I had tried it somewhere in the past and liked it, so I ended up buying a slightly pricier bottle back then… but I haven’t opened it yet because I felt it was too precious (lol). I got to try the “Family Cask Series” at this bar, and… yeah, it’s delicious. No complaints at all. When water was added, the sweetness that had felt a bit assertive was balanced out, creating an even more refined flavor.
After enjoying such a great bottle, it brings back a disappointing memory from the Whisky Festival held in Yokohama around Golden Week, where I paid to taste a limited Glenfarclas. Drinking it from a bland plastic cup cut my excitement in half, and in the end, I couldn’t even write down my impressions. Such a shame, especially since it actually tasted quite good.
