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. .

ABK6 Orange Liqueur + ETUI
Our malt is crafted slowly and is matured at the distillery in traditional dunnage warehouses on earthen floors. We're proud of our heritage and have used traditional methods since we rolled our first barrels back in 1790. And yet we're not afraid to tinker with tradition if it serves to improve our product. Our single malt is the perfect mix of nature and nurture and we believe in quality above all else.
