- Description
- This 2008 Glenallachie spent 16 years in an hogshead previously used for Islay whisky, creating an unexpected cross-regional blend of Speyside's chocolate and dried fruit with coastal smoke and heather. The result is a richly layered Speyside expression from Ardgowan's Inverdarach Editions.
