Glenfarclas, The Family Casks, 1991-2017, Sherry Butt Number 209, 570 bottles, 57.0% abv.

Nose: light bodied, a sweeter honeyed sherry, actually more like smashed raisins with honey. Adding water turns it into worchester sauce.

Palate: initial palate is a little bit of honey, generally sour, mid palate has light green grapes but transforms to old expired sherry of very light wet old steamed lotus leaves, back palate has wet old steamed lotus leaves, hints of wood.

Finish: medium, light wet old steamed lotus leaves, dry wood, earthy, viney, tobacco-ish residue.

Seems like a very young or youthful sherry forward dram. Flavors are strong, but not very good. Strange one.

Grade: B
