This Glenfarclas was aged in a Refill Hogshead, aged for 7 years, and had an allocation of 108 bottles. It was bottled at cask strength with no chill filtering and no additives. I had this blind then was revelaed the bottle.

This tastes pretty young, and is fairly light in flavor to me. Good flavor is there but needs more age.
Guess: Young 3-6 year old single malt, 55-58% abv. Some Irish Single Cask?

Interesting and fun to try! However to my taste I’ve found the Glenfarclas just to be ok and this one needs more age to me.
