Batch 2 of GlenAllachie’s 10 Year Old Cask Strength was awarded 95 points and a gold medal by the International Wine & Spirit Competition in 2019. Two years later, Batch 4 was crowned “World’s Best Single Malt” at the World Whiskies Awards. The eighth batch of single casks specially selected for the UK, this GlenAllachie Olorose Puncheon 2010 champions the unique blend of wood, spirit, and subsequent flavour extension.
With half a century of experience under his belt, Master Distiller Billy Walker (formerly of BenRiach, GlenDronach and Glenglassaugh) clearly knows what he’s doing. Maturation in this particular Oloroso puncheon is deepened with intense oak and freshly roasted chestnuts. The palate delivers dark chocolate and decadent caramel that lend a rich mahogany hue to the honeyed spirit - just as Billy Walker intended.
GlenAllachie – pronounced ‘Glen-al-ACK-ee’ – is one of those intriguing Single Malts that you’ve probably loved for some time but without realising it yet. This Speyside distillery, nestled at the foot of Ben Rinnes near Aberlour, was designed by William Delmé-Evans – the architect who also planned Tullibardine and Isle of Jura. The vast majority of GlenAllachie’s whisky has gone into the much-loved Chivas Brothers blends, hence why you’re probably already a fan. Now independently owned by The GlenAllachie Distillers Company Limited, a new range of whiskies has emerged, which has scooped them Scottish Whisky Distillery of the Year 2019, World’s Best Single Malt at the 2021 World Whiskies Awards, and more than 50 other awards in just three years. You’re going to want to make space in your collection for GlenAllachie.
