- Description
- GlenAllachie's 12-year-old from 2008, aged entirely in a first-fill sherry butt and bottled by Signatory at cask strength in January 2021 (626 bottles). The sherry influence is pronounced, wrapping the distillery's cereal-based sweetness in layers of dried fruit, cocoa, and warming spice. This is a richly textured dram that sits comfortably between the Highland and Speyside traditions, ideal for those who prefer sherry-matured single malts.
