GlenAllachie Sinteis III French Oak/Oloroso 57.4% 2014

‘Sinteis’ (pronounced sin-teesh), meaning ‘synthesis’ in Scottish Gaelic, embodies our cask creativity as we combine the bold with the beloved. Two distinct casks. One harmonious synthesis.

FRENCH VIRGIN OAK
The French virgin oak casks are crafted from Limousin oak sourced from the forests of central France, prized for their wide grain structure, which encourages greater interaction between spirit and wood. Air-dried for 15 months before hosting The GlenAllachie spirit, the oak imparts notes of honey and orange peel with gentle spice and subtle earthy undertones.

OLOROSO SHERRY
Subjected to extensive ageing without a ‘flor’ yeast layer, Oloroso, which roughly translates to ‘fragrant’, is the darkest dry Sherry style renowned for its pronounced nutty, dried fruit qualities.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE Orange zest, nutmeg and dried orchard fruits, with honeycomb, maraschino cherries, mocha and crystallised brown sugar.

PALATE Heather honey, spiced orange and baked apple, followed by winter truffle, muscovado sugar and cinnamon.

FINISH Hazelnuts and mocha on the finish.
