Tasting Notes

Allowing Master Distiller Billy Walker to truly stretch his blending legs (quite literally as he explored GlenAllachie’s 50,000 cask inventory to make these selections!) GlenAllachie’s minimum-18-year-old single malt features whisky aged in American oak and PX & Oloroso sherry casks. A nose of fresh vanilla and butterscotch precedes a palate of raisin and marzipan underscored with rich notes of dark cherry and chocolate. Non-chill filtered and with no color added at an ABV of 46%.
