This Gleallachie is a new release from the Billy Walker regime of Glenallachie. Aged for 18 years in sherry casks. Salted butter and crumpets with a sweetened compote flavour on the nose. Barley and sultanas, with a honey on toast flavour. The finish has a very nutty taste with a dry note.
Glenallachie distillery
Glenallachie distillery was built in 1967 by Mackinlays, a subsidiary of Scottish and Newcastle breweries. Mackinlays saw the need to build a distillery given the demand for Scotch whisky from the American market. During the difficult 1980's Invergordon distillers acquired Mackinlays. They didn't hold it for long, four years after they took over, they sold the mothballed distillery to a subsidiary of Pernod-Ricard: Campbell Distillers.
The whisky from this distillery is rarely seen as as a single malt. Independent bottlings are few. In 2017 Glenallachie was sold to legendary distiller Billy Walker. A new range of single malts was launched in 2018.
