Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: The Alistair Walker Whisky Company 70cl / 62.3%
A deep, dark 2005 Allt-A-Bhainne 16-year-old, finished in a Pedro Ximenez sherry puncheon cask and bottled in 2022 by Alistair Walker Whisky Co. for their Infrequent Flyers range at its extraordinary cask strength of 62.3%.
Allt-A-Bhainne is a relatively obscure modern Speyside distillery whose owners Pernod Ricard used its output for their 100 Pipers blended Scotch whisky until 2018, when the first ever ongoing official Allt-A-Bhainne was released. This 16-year-old Allt-A-Bhainne was distilled in 2005, after the distillery had come out of a brief period in mothballs that began in 2002 following Pernod's acquisition of Chivas Bros.
Please note that this Allt-A-Bhainne 2005 is Strictly Maximum 1 Bottle Per Customer. Duplicate orders will be deleted.

Tasting Notes
Colour: Midnight at the oasis.
Nose: Oooft, what a nose! Complex like calculus, with a battle raging between sweet and savoury! Burnt toffee, BBQ sauce, balsamic glaze, chocolate coated chorizo balls (I swear I had these at a wedding in Spain).
Palate: Viscous, rich and full-bodied. Dark chocolate and fudge to the fore, alongside a curious but most welcome sweet balsamic presence. Quite a spicy dram; cracked black pepper and ground cinnamon are not shy here. Honourable mentions too for liquified brown sugar, peanut butter and cocoa powder, which all contribute.
There's a lot going on here. Allt-a-Bhainne or Altered Beast!?

I bought this as a present then did the tour with my brother at Lindores Abbey distillery in Newburgh Fife.The bottle i bought from Whisky-online was cheaper than at Lindores ,very happy again and a very quick delivery.
A fantastic line up of drams from Alistair's range, all presented at full cask strength. Alistair gave a very informative narrative of the independent bottling industry, with many anecdotes and experiences shared. The whiskies selected were all top class, and as always the hosting by Whisky Online was brilliant. Looking forward to the next tasting events guys.
