Glenfarclas and Ben Nevis questions?

Mar 06, 2004 2 Replies

Hi,



Can anyone tell me if the following two fantastic Glenfarclas OB whiskys are chil filtered or colored?


Glenfarclas 105 Glenfarclas 15 YO 46 ALC


And the same for Ben Nevis 10 yo OB? Thanks


Uzytkownik "mproberts" napisal:

Judging by how cloudy it gets after a few drops of water are added, it is not chill filtered. Judging by how consistant in clour it is throughout different batches, its colour is caramel-adjusted

Never had it, but the strength of a whisky is usually left at 46% ABV to avoid unwanted "clouding" in whiskies that have not been chill filtered. As to the colouring - no idea

Most certainly chill filtered and caramel-adjusted. Unless we are talking about some expression that I have never had. Which is possible as I don't rate Ben Nevis 10yo much higher than, say, Tomatin 10yo (yuck!), and I don't have it too often.

Cheers, Rajmund

I have no idea whether or not these malts are chillfiltered but I do know that the Glenfarclas 105 and the Ben Nevis are colored whereas the Glenfarclas 15y is not.
