Studying the influence of casks on single malt whiskey is Billy Walker’s life’s work. The industry veteran addresses the phenomenon in particular in the Wood Finish Series. The series consists of innovative bottlings that the GlenAllachie Master Blender perfects in puncheons, pipes and the like, often from small producers from all over the world. His The GlenAllachie 13 J. – Oloroso Wood Finish was bottled exclusively for the German market.

The noble single malt in a rich mahogany tone secured classic vanilla and spice notes in first and second fill barrels made of American white oak. Refined in Oloroso Sherry Puncheons, the dark exclusive bottling spoils the palate with a meaningful, full-bodied flavor profile that underlines the GlenAllachie character with cinnamon and coffee as well as dried and candied fruits.

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Lush aromas of cinnamon, heather honey and roasted coffee beans, with dried sultanas, mocha and grated coconut.
Palate: Hints of syrupy figs and caramel brittle, followed by heather honey, cinnamon and candied ginger.

The distillery: back in Scottish private ownership since 2017
Founded in 1967, The GlenAllachie Distillery has long been foreign owned. In 2017, The GlenAllachie Distillers Company bought the distillery in Speyside – together with the filled casks in the warehouse. Its new owners: longtime Scotch whiskey luminary Billy Walker and his partners Trisha Savage and Graham Stevenson. The new team was introduced to their special features by long-standing employees of the distillery. Below: The distillery has four stills and two separate spirit safes – and can therefore produce two different distillates in parallel, for example smoky and non-smoky New Make.
The GlenAllachie Distillery has so far produced almost exclusively blended whiskeys. Single malt, on the other hand, was extremely rarely available, for example through independent bottlers. This changed in 2017 with the takeover by Billy Walker’s team. Age information for its single malts is important to The GlenAllachie: The core range consists of a 10, 12, 18 and 25 year old whisky. In addition, regular single cask and special bottlings are planned – and from 2018 even a smoky whiskey.
