- Description
- This 11-year-old Speyside single malt from Glenallachie was distilled in 2012 and matured entirely in oloroso sherry casks before independent bottling by Signatory without added colour or chill filtration. The sherry influence shapes a rich, wine-forward character with dried fruit and oxidative depth typical of quality oloroso maturation. The cask-strength presentation preserves natural texture and complexity while maintaining the distillery's characteristic balance. Best enjoyed neat or with minimal water to fully appreciate the oloroso's contribution.
