Description

One of the results of the US-fuelled 1960s whisky boom, GlenAllachie was built in 1967 by Scottish & Newcastle Breweries’ distilling subsidiary, Mackinlay’s.  It has only very rarely been seen as a single malt bottling – most notably as part of Chivas Brothers’ Cask Strength series.

In July 2017, it was announced that Chivas Brothers had agreed to sell GlenAllachie to The GlenAllachie Distillers Company, operated by former BenRiach MD Billy Walker, ex-Inver House Distillers MD Graham Stevenson, and Trisha Savage. A capital ‘A’ was added to the distillery name, in keeping with the changes Walker made to BenRiach and GlenDronach under his stewardship.

Taste

The “past”, “present” and “future” series is a celebration of Billy Walker’s momentous career so far.

Sherry Butt Maturation | Bottled February 2022

Brand Tasting Notes: Waves of walnuts, heather honey, and subtle dried fruits followed by bursts of toasted coffee, orange peel, and cinnamon sticks. The palate is fig syrup, caramelized muscovado sugar, and roasted pine nuts with notes of heather honey, crystallized ginger, and dried apricots.
