Glenallachie 21 Years Batch 6 "4cl Sample" - 52,8%
The core range of The GlenAllachie consists of single malts aged at least eight years. Their hallmark: they mature mainly in first-class sherry casks. An outstanding example is The GlenAllachie 21 y.o.
With more than half a century of expertise, Master Blender Billy Walker married hand-picked Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry puncheons and hogsheads for the cask strength Batch 6. The result? A rich, luxurious single malt that glazes the palate with layered notes of syrup, maraschino cherries, dark chocolate and candied ginger.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Ripe dark cherries and brandy-soaked honeycomb, with notes of spiced orange, thick syrup and blackberry tart.
Palate: Dark chocolate, dried red berries and maraschino cherries, followed by heather honey and candied ginger.
Finish: Plum brandy and mocha.

The distillery: back in Scottish private ownership since 2017
Founded in 1967, The GlenAllachie Distillery was owned by foreign corporations for a long time. In 2017, The GlenAllachie Distillers Company bought the Speyside distillery, together with the filled casks in the warehouse. Its new owners: long-standing Scottish whisky luminary Billy Walker and his partners Trisha Savage and Graham Stevenson. The new team was introduced to the distillery's particular features by long-serving staff. Among them: the distillery has four stills and two separate spirit safes, so it can produce two different spirits in parallel, for example peated and unpeated new make.
Until then, The GlenAllachie Distillery had produced almost exclusively for blended whiskies. Single malt, on the other hand, was extremely rare, available for example through independent bottlers. This changed in 2017 with the takeover by Billy Walker's team. Age statements for its single malts are 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 releases are planned, and from 2018 even a peated whisky.
