Description

Since 2017 the Glenallachie distillery has been the playground of master distiller Billy Walker – a 50-year veteran in the Scotch whisky industry. As one of his pride and joy – each batch of Glenallachie 10 Year Old Cask Strength works as a guidepost for the next step of the distillery’s journey. Batch 9 is a marriage of whiskies aged for a minimum of 10 years in a combination of Pedro Ximenez, oloroso, Rioja, and medium-toasted American oak barrels. Bottled at natural cask strength of 58.1%, this whisky has classic sherried notes of dark chocolate and dried fruits, coupled with sweet spices and red berries – and a kick.

Nose

Hints of mocha, fig syrup and toasted hazelnuts, with honeycomb, dried red berries and a touch of molasses tart.

Taste

Baking spices, brandied cherries and toffee sauce, followed by Black Forest gâteau, mocha and grilled honeycomb, with molasses and damson plum on the finish.

Maple syrup, roasted almonds, a touch of menthol rests beneath, with earthy coffee and cocoa.
