The Glenallachie, Premier Cru Classe Wine Finish, 11-Year-Old, Speyside, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (48%)

Description

Glenallachie, since 2017 under the stewardship of Billy Walker, is becoming known for richly-fruited Speyside malt whisky, with depth and complexity aplenty. This whisky was aged in casks that were previously used to make First Growth Bordeaux. Though we can't say which, it is a very elite group indeed (just five properties in total). The resulting whisky has deep flavours of blackcurrant, roasted coffee and citrus zest, underscored by spicy oak.

About this spirit

Glenallachie Distillery, Speyside

Glenallachie Distillery was built in 1967 by Charles Mackinlay & Co, who operated as part of the Scottish and Newcastle Breweries at the time. It temporarily ceased production between 1987 and 1989, when it was purchased by Invergordon Distillers, who also owned Isle of Jura. A new lease of life followed under the ownership of Chivas, that acquired the distillery in 1989. Glenallachie distillery bottlings include a 12 Year Old and a 15 Year Old, while the Independent Bottlings comprise Connoisseurs Choice ( by Gordon & MacPhail), Dun Bheagan (by Ian McLeod), Provenance (by Douglas Laing), and Un-Chill Filtered (Signatory Bottling from cask). The house style is soft, elegant, clean, lightly malty, and with just a whiff of peat. An excellent aperitif.
