Billy Walker spends a lot of time in the warehouse sampling barrels. With over 40,000 units on site, it's not a job for the faint of heart. However, it's certainly a good opportunity to taste the results of his efforts. After tasting this vast array of casks, Billy was keen to present GlenAllachie bottled to its natural strength. We are delighted to present the GlenAllachie cask strength 10 year old (produced in a limited edition).

Nose: Fairly sweet. Fresh, clean phenols immediately assert themselves, with aromas of fire on a beach and wood ash. They are supported by subtle fruity notes, some sweet, suggesting rowan jelly, others evoking unripe currants. With a drop of water, the ash is more present.
Mouth: Unctuous and with a texture that really fills the mouth, very sweet at first then quickly drying, with a hint of salt and a smoky taste of lip-smacking intensity. A drop of water brings out the sweetness even more, but makes little difference.
Finish: Long, powerfully smoky and drying, with a touch of spice that also lingers in the aftertaste.
