GlenAllachie 8 Year Old - April 2022 Release
SILVER AWARD WINNER AT THE INTERNATIONAL WINE & SPIRITS COMPETITION (IWSC) 2022
The GlenAllachie core range family grows with the addition of this new GlenAllachie 8 Year Old.
Guided by his half-century of experience, Master Distiller Billy Walker has implemented a philosophy of wood innovation and sourced the world’s finest casks to elevate the spirit to its optimum, delivering a truly exceptional single malt.
Created from a combination of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry puncheons along with a small quantity of Virgin Oak casks and red wine barriques, the resulting bronze spirit delivers sherry-matured sophistication. Abundant with classic Speyside heather honey and butterscotch notes, balanced perfectly with sweet spices and hints of stem ginger, this creation truly represents the character of GlenAllachie.
Bottled non chill-filtered and natural colour.
