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.

Bursting with heather honey, toffee and stewed fruit: The GlenAllachie 11 y.o. – Marsala Wood Finish was finished for a full 42 months in Sicilian fortified wine casks. This single malt was bottled exclusively for the UK market and is available here only in limited quantities.
As with all the single malts in his aromatic Wood Finish range, Billy Walker collaborated with niche producers for this 11-year-old. In Sicily, he unearthed small quantities of exceptional Marsala casks that complement the GlenAllachie character beautifully. At 48% ABV, uncoloured and non-chill-filtered, it is full-bodied and fruity, pleasantly sweet and velvety smooth.
