About this bottle

Prior to 2017, when the distillery was acquired by a consortium led by master distiller Billy Walker, GlenAllachie was rarely seen as a single malt whisky. The much anticipated core range of the GlenAllachie distillery from Speyside was finally launched in July 2018. Aged for 10 years in a combination of American oak, Pedro Ximénez sherry, oloroso sherry, and virgin oak barrels. This 1st batch is a cask strength limited edition release with only 2000 cases available worldwide. Bottled at 57.1% ABV.

Gherch 3.5

Blind tasting Nose: sherry, bourbon, cherries Taste: Very sweet, maybe a little too sweet. Maraschino, maple syrup. higher abv. Maybe a little smokiness at the end. Wisps of dusty cereal grain. Wood: sherry and bourbon. Bit torn on this one. It is enjoyable but I think it’d be a once in a while type of thing. The sweetness is nice but verging on too much. Reminds me of one I had a while ago aged in maple syrup barrels. I want to say there might be some corn in this as I’m getting stronger bourbon elements Distillery? Aberlour

This is a great expression. PX comes out in the taste along with the oak. Fresh sweet fruit on the nose , vanilla on the nose and taste. Full body smooth with some bite in the middle then rounds and lingers in the end. Going to enjoy this bottle. I would definitely replace this when finished great value.

Thick, honey/toffee, hint of spice and Vegemite type sourness to the sweetness. Very smooth for the cask strength.
