- Description
- GlenAllachie aged this 24-year-old spirit in a single bourbon barrel from 1992 to 2016, preserving the Speyside distillery's orchard fruit and honey character while adding vanilla and subtle oak vanilla from the cask. The 50% ABV bottling delivers moderate intensity with balance between spirit and wood influence, avoiding excessive oak despite two decades of maturation. With only 125 bottles released by Hunter Laing, this is an accessible yet rare expression of understated Speyside craftsmanship.
