GlenAllachie 11 Year Old Wine Series Premier Cru Classe Wine Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky
FOR SAME DAY UK SHIPPING (MONDAY - FRIDAY)
To craft The GlenAllachie Wine Series, Glenallachie first expertly matured their spirit in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. Subsequently, the whisky underwent additional maturation for over two years in wine barriques skilfully sourced by Master Distiller Billy Walker, imparting a distinctive twist onto the GlenAllachie spirit. 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 barriques were sourced; thus, the wood adds distinctive layers of complexity, depth and charm. These particular French oak barriques were procured from one of just five Premier Cru Classé chateaux located in the world-renowned wine region of Bordeaux, France. Top of the official Bordeaux wine classification, these estates are considered to produce wines of the highest quality and flavour. Maturation in casks which previously held such full-bodied red wine has imbibed the honeyed spirit with deep notes of black cherry and smooth espresso. The resulting golden malt delivers a truly refined yet complex drinking experience.
