Specially selected by Billy Walker, Limited Release: 2,600 cases, Matured in ex-Bourbon barrels with secondary maturation in Grattamacco barriques, Matured in Speyside, Non-chill filtered, No added colouring.
Factors such as the oak species, level of toasting, and coopering of the cask each leave a unique mark on the slumbering spirit. The oak itself was previously influenced by the grape variety and terroir of the winery from which we sourced these barriques; thus, the wood adds distinctive layers of complexity, depth and charm.
TASTING NOTES:
COLOR: Rose gold.
NOSE: Notes of dark chocolate, caramel, heather honey, blackcurrant, caramelized brown sugar, and cinnamon spices.
PALATE: Waves of ripe red berries, grapefruit, and toasted honeycomb, followed by butter caramel, sweet fruits, and black truffle.

This rare and unique Single Cask, drawn from cask #803475, comes from an Oloroso Puncheon and was aged for 10 years in the GlenAllachie distillery warehouses. Each cask is monitored with meticulous attention to capture and enhance the essence of its contents at the time of bottling. Uncolored and non-chill filtered, this whisky thus preserves all its authenticity and natural complexity. This cask strength whisky at 62.2% ABV reveals the perfect marriage between the Sherry-soaked Spanish oak and the distillate. This type of whisky, bottled directly from the cask, offers a raw intensity and a richness of aromas and flavors that only undiluted spirits can reveal.

The star of "bleutiful" aperitifs! An aperitif crafted through the maceration of green anise, star anise, and licorice, inspired by the blue skies of Provence and the Mediterranean. Provence is the only place in the world where the aperitif combines the sea, gastronomy, and the art of living with sport, thanks to pétanque. The aperitif thus becomes a unique moment that brings together friends and family, where several generations gather to share convivial moments enriched by the charm Marcel Pagnol has accustomed us to.
The GlenAllachie Wine Cask Finish series is a tribute to the art of aging and the expertise of master blender Billy Walker. For this 2023 edition, the whisky, first matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks, underwent a second aging in meticulously selected European wine barrels. This special edition, named "The Cuvée Wine Cask Finish," is an elegant and complex blend of four finishes from prestigious wine regions: the French AOCs of Languedoc and Médoc, as well as the Italian Grattamacco and Recioto della Valpolicella barrels. This rare single malt offers a unique aromatic richness, combining red fruits, delicate spices, and bursts of citrus for a sensory experience full of character.
Knappogue [NA-POGUE] takes its name from the castle which inspired it, the castle on “The kissing hill”. Built in 1467, the stronghold had fallen into ruin by 1966 when Mark Edwin Andrews and his wife Lavonne (both architects) restored it and filled it with some of Ireland’s best casks of whiskey. Some of these became the oldest, rarest commercially available whiskeys, the others helped define Irish single malt whiskey itself. Matured in ex-Bourbon casks for 14 years before transferring into Oloroso Sherry casks for a 2 year Sherry finish.
