GlenAllachie 10Y Spanish Virgin Oak
This mahogany malt obtains its spicy, treacly flavours from maturation in hogsheads made of Spanish Oak (Quercus Robur). This particular wood was sourced from the regions of Galicia and Asturias, specifically from the forests of the Cantabrian Mountains, which have a cool, humid climate. The oak was air dried for around 18 months and then toasted and charred to a medium level, opening up the oak to allow our complex spirit to extract its cask character. The secondary ageing in these virgin casks deepened the mahogany hue of the whisky and created a palate rich with dried fruits, maraschino cherries and hints of stem ginger.
TASTING NOTES :
COLOR: Mahogany.
NOSE: Hints of orchard fruits, bread spices, and sticky toffee pudding, with notes of brown sugar, glacé cherries, and citrus.
PALATE: Chocolate, coffee, heather honey, pepper, ginger, molasses, banana, and currants on the finish. .
