- Description
- The 2022 release of this 18-year-old Speyside single malt shows vanilla, butterscotch, spice, raisins, heather, cherries, and honey across a rich palate. At 46% ABV, the texture is smooth and mature, with integrated oak and the distillery's characteristic honeyed malt underneath the spice and dried fruit. The extended aging has built layers of complexity while maintaining GlenAllachie's approachable character. A well-balanced representation of what this distillery achieves with time and proper cask maturation.
