Honest and direct sometimes beats overworked or over complicated 'perfection'. I thought a bottle of Hibiki 21 I had about 8 years ago was the best I'd tasted. Still have a spare of that in the cupboard but that's from back when it cost £63 a bottle and not £450 like now. Anyway I think 105 is just brilliant and if it was a desert island choice I'd take a case of 105 over Hibiki 21. In the real world of course I'll take the japanese crate, then sell it and go on holiday.
I belong to a whisky club that meets every Tuesday. Yesterday, we had the 105, the very day you posted the video on your vlog. Weird. The group unanimously loved it. It rivals the Aberlour A'bunadh in intensity and flavor.
Love this whiskey. Brought a bottle home from Europe and can’t wait to introduce a fellow whiskey lover to my new favorite.
Great review! Fascinating backstory around ‘proof’. Thanks!
This whiskey fenegaled its way into my top 5 scotch whiskeys of all time. Love the intensity and the flavor.
What whiskeys make up the rest of your list? I'm about to buy this 105
I'm really liking this whiskey now that the bottle has been opened for awhile. The price is fantastic right now so I think this is the perfect daily Dram!
I always find a second time drinking experience is much better than the newly open bottle of this whiskey.
I love the 105, a great dram for the price.
The 10 year old age statement seems to go on and off the back of the tube. I have an old tube I kept that has the mention on it on the back, in the description, then this new bottle I bought doesn't have it. EDIT: It does have it, but the age statement of 10 years is only on the back label of the bottle it turns out.
I put a review on the whisky database a few weeks ago for this. Its so intense that its like being beaten over the head with a fruitcake. An absolute beast.
fruitcaked to death lol
did you add water?
I absolutely love the intensity though. Money well spent.
The 105 is an amazing whisky, the first taste struck me with lightning...
Its a real steal, such high quality for this price...
105 is one of the best out there
I had been teetotal for 10 years. Last year I drank for one night only (significant birthday) and had roughly 8 measures of this in about half an hour. Neat.
I have not had any alcohol since....But by god it was nice...
There is a particularly scientific reason why xxx proof x 4/7 =% ABV. Designed by Bartholomew Sikes, it was found easy to understand. So, 105 x 4/7 = 60% ABV; 75 x 4/7 = 42.8 ABV. Read it up please.
great review, as always! bought this sometime ago but not yet ready to try it! thx
Good evening guys , it’s available whisky value for money as Horst Luening said and of course the best whisky mixing for a classic rusty nail cocktail
Compares well with A'bunadh and the Glengoyne Cask Strength (batches 2 and 3 were amazing while others aren't as good).
A superior Cask Strength whisky indeed..Yummy stuff!😋😋😋🥃
I’m finding the same here in the U.S. Son paid about $35 Euro for the bottle I brought home. The only place I have found it has been out of stock, but it runs about $105 when they have it.
Cheap? Bottle is 100$ CAD now…
Yep, just saw it for 115USD.
What tasting glassware is this, please? Looks great.
Excellent review, very appealing whisky. I certainly wish I could purchase a bottle.
Thanks.
Is it not stocked in your local shops? Or the price not within budget at the moment?
Hi Horst! I have seen in the boutique were I usually buy my whiskies that they have a Glenfarclas 12, and I have just realized that you don´t have its tasting.
If there is a section of suggestions, this is mine then ;)
The best whisky for a classic rusty nail
Needs: dry ice + professional qualifications
This bottle is nearly $90 in denver colorado!
What????? in my country 1l bottle is for 40-45 dolars
OMG! Kaum zu glauben! Diesesr Ami liebt Aberlour A'bunadh, aber Glenfarclas 105 ist ERSTE KLASSE! Sherry Bombe! Wunderbar! Ich muss sofort noch zwei Flaschen bestellen!! :-)
This is a good value whisky, I love it!
This is very expensive in NZ for some reason, around $110 per bottle ($80USD)
This bottle in Australia costs $115 USD!
Weird, I'm from NZ and I picked one up (here in China on the great Taobao) for just over the equivalent of NZ$30. Not just this one either, a lot of whiskies run at a similar price.
it's around £50 for 70cl in the UK
still works out equivalent to £30 for standard strength
USD50 in Hong Kong!
Just ordered a bottle
Nearly $90 in Indiana now.
I would like to see you review some Canadian Whiskey. Crown Royal Northern Harvest which was voted best in the world by Jim Murray for the whiskey bible. Or another one, probably my favourite White Owl Whiskey, an amazing rye, also if you do flavoured whiskeys Hopped Wisers is an excellent sipping whiskey.
He did end up doing the Northern Harvest ... you can search it up and watch.
Hi Horst!
hi
Santa gave me today
36$ в Украине за 1л. 36$ in Ukraine for one liter
$100 in New Zealand but worth it I think
Australia is AUD 99 where can buy the cheaper one

850ntd(28usd)in Taipei
In Taipei all whisky is cheaper because low tax
Feiner Whisky das kann ich dir Sägg´n
