Part of the Distillery's new core range, the 12 year is bottled unchill-filtered without added colouring after maturing in a mix of virgin oak as well as PX and Oloroso sherry casks.
The GlenAllachie 12 Year is one of the newly independent distillery’s first core releases, alongside a cask strength 10 Year, 18 Year and 25 Year. As with the BenRiach Distillery Co.’s whiskies, Billy Walker has opted to bottle at 46% without colouring or chill-filtering. That tugs at our heartstrings!
The GlenAllachie 12 year was featured on Day 12 of our own 2018 KWM Whisky Advent Calendar.
The full-sized bottle of the GlenAllachie 12-year-old can be found here.
Andrew’s Tasting Note
Nose: Old English Butterscotch ice cream, plum pudding, silky soft leather gloves and tangy Manuka honey; dark chocolate shavings and white chocolate Hershey’s Kisses.
Palate: rich, fruity and layered; a beautifully balanced melange of both sherry and bourbon notes; more Old English Butterscotch, Manuka honey and plum pudding; Fruit by the Foot, with cooked raisins and dried prunes; salty licorice and dark bakers chocolate towards the back.
Finish: medium in length and intensity; still very balanced and smooth.
Comment: if this is a sign of things to come we are all in store for some great bottlings from the next it Speyside distillery.
Distiller's Tasting Note
Nose: Butterscotch and honey playing the lead, with raisins and mocha in the background.
Taste: Honey, marzipan and bananas, with lashings of butterscotch, raisins and a delicate hint of mocha.
