Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 57.8%
Despite the success of Glenallachie 10-year-old Cask Strength Batch 3, which picked up Best Speyside Single Malt at the World Whisky Awards 2020, no-one could have foreseen that Batch 4 would go even further, being crowned World's Best Single Malt at the World Whisky Awards 2021.
Batch 5 of this tremendous whisky lasted nanoseconds when it was launched a few months ago and the hype is real for Batch 6, which has been bottled at the slightly higher strength of 57.8%.
As before, this 10-year-old Glenallachie Cask Strength is composed predominantly of Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry puncheons, with a smattering of virgin oak and Rioja casks adding an extra layer of sweet, spicy fruitiness for good measure.
This product is available to our VIP Club Members only and is Strictly Maximum 1 Bottle per Customer. Duplicate orders will be deleted.
