GlenAllachie Distillery releases fifth batch of its cask strength 10-year-old single malt

The GlenAllachie Distillery has unveiled the fifth batch of its cask strength 10-year-old single malt. The release follows the success of previous batches, most notably the fourth installment, which last week was awarded one of the most competitive and prestigious accolades: World’s Best Single Malt at the World Whiskies Awards 2021. Held by Whisky Magazine, the World Whiskies Awards recognise the very best expressions from across the globe.

Batch 5 which is a limited release of 4,500 cases worldwide, is a combination of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry puncheons, Rioja barriques, and a small quantity of Virgin Oak casks, expertly selected and blended by industry veteran and Master Distiller/Blender of the Year (World Whiskies Awards, 2020), Billy Walker.

Presented at natural strength of 55.9 percent ABV, without added colour or chill filtration, the punchy spirit promises waves of warming mocha, tangy orange zest, and winter spices, all alongside archetypical GlenAllachie sweet honey notes.

The GlenAllachie 10-year-old Cask Strength Batch 5 is available from specialist retailers globally, with a UK RRSP of £58.99.
