- Description
- GlenAllachie's first 21-year-old batch was distilled in 1997-1998 and matured in Pedro Ximénez puncheons and hogsheads, then blended by master distiller Billy Walker. Rich chocolate and warming spices mingle with honeyed citrus notes across the palate, while the 51.4% ABV and non-chill-filtered approach preserve full cask character. The texture is thick and coating, with considerable length. A mature, complex Speyside for those who appreciate sherry's complexity over subtlety.
