Description

“With a deep passion for sourcing the finest quality casks and allowing the spirit to interact with multiple wood types across its maturation journey, no corners are cut in creating superlative drinking experiences.

The result of seamlessly coordinated collaboration is a range of carefully crafted and cask-perfected Scotch whiskies, each personally approved by Billy Walker.”

A number of unique casks were filled at Glenallachie in 2006. Since Billy Walker took over the distillery and its stocks, he has been able to scour the warehouses for special gems like this one. This particular barrique previously held Rioja wine, before spending 15 years bringing this whisky to full maturity. 301 bottles were produced at a cask strength of 60.5%

Nose – Rich notes of stewed plums, raspberries, coconut, treacle and nutmeg

Palate – Layers of heather honey, treacle and ginger, with red berries, apricots and almonds.
