About GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Cask Strength Batch 7 Single Malt Scotch Whisky
When the GlenAllachie distillery was revived in 2017 by Billy Walker, Trisha Savage, and Graham Stevenson, they were reviewing some stock from 2007 and 2008. Master Distiller Billy Walker quickly realized that the samples of Speyside whisky were particularly balanced. The decision was made to add a 10-year-old whisky to the core range, and this is how The GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Cask Strength came to be. Since then, various batches have earned several of the most prestigious awards, including being named "World's Best Single Malt" at the World Whiskies Awards in 2021. Batch 7 mas matured in a combination of PX and Oloroso sherry puncheons, along with a small quantity of virgin oak and Rioja wine casks. Bottled at a cask strength of 113.6 proof without chill-filtration and added coloring, the whisky is rich and deep with notes of plum, dark chocolate, raisins, and honey.Get your bottle of this deliciously rich whisky today!
About The GlenAllachie
Glenallachie is situated in Banffshire, at the foot of Ben Rinnes, neighboring several other distilleries. Founded in 1967 by Mackinlay McPherson Ltd Glenallachie is one of the youngest distilleries in Scotland. In 1989 Campbell Distillers acquired The GlenAllachie Distillery, starting production run that lasted for nearly 30 years.In 2017 Billy Walker, Trisha Savage and Graham Stevenson came together to acquire the GlenAllachie facility reincarnating the distillery as The GlenAllachie Distillers Company Limited. The highly anticipated core range of the GlenAllachie distillery from Speyside was finally launched in July 2018.
The water for the distillery comes from the dam heads over 2 miles from the distillery. Henshead and Blackstank flow into Beachshach Burn, which supplies the water directly to the distillery, and sits on the North East of BenRinnes. The distillery was designed to be gravity fed, created with horizontal condensers that maintain a consistent temperature, or increase/decrease to alter the character of the spirit.
About Scotch
Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)
Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.
