GlenAllachie 8 years Scottish Oak Wood Finish 70cl, 48%

Description

GlenAllachie 8 years Scottish Oak Wood Finish 70cl, 48% is a Speyside single malt from GlenAllachie Distillery, released as part of the Virgin Oak Series.

This release was initially matured in American oak bourbon barrels before being finished for around 18 months in Scottish virgin oak casks. The oak used is Scottish Sessile Oak, sourced from the Atlantic coast, a rare and difficult wood to work with in whisky maturation.

At 48%, it offers a rich but approachable profile, with baked oats, butterscotch, toffee, cinnamon, gingersnaps, heather honey, orchard fruit, lemon zest, white chocolate and ginger. It is bottled at natural colour and non-chill filtered, keeping the whisky full in texture and flavour.
