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.

The Glenallachie 17 year old Mizunara & Oloroso Single Malt opens the Masters of Wood series, the new super-premium division of the Wood Collection. It brings together only the finest and most experimental refinements.
The GlenAllachie is known for its flair in sourcing and managing both high-quality and unusual barrels from all over the world. Part of the impressive inventory? Mizunara barrels. The Japanese oak is rarely used for whisky maturation due to its high price and the challenges it presents when storing it.
Billy Walker combined the cask rarity with Oloroso sherry puncheons and hogsheads. After 17 years of maturation, the noble result combines typical heather honey with dried orange peel, cinnamon apples and fig syrup and dusts everything with cocoa, pecans and Demerara sugar.
