Oldest ever whisky released by The GlenAllachie

Scotch whisky distillery The GlenAllachie has announced its oldest and most prestigious single malt expression till date - The GlenAllachie 35-year-old. It was devised to represent the distillery’s unwavering commitment to cask craftsmanship and boutique, small-batch whiskies.

The leading independent producer is owned and managed by illustrious whisky maker of 52 years, Billy Walker.

Encased in a lavish oak box, the distinguished, antique single malt was matured in three Pedro Ximénez, one Oloroso and two virgin oak casks. The resulting spirit is said to “promise a luscious symphony of rich mocha, ripe pineapple, sweet spices and treacle tart”.

The 35-year-old whisky is presented at a high strength of 48 percent ABV, and has natural colour and is non-chill filtered. With a UK RRSP of £1,479, The GlenAllachie 35-year-old will become increasingly available at specialist retailers worldwide.
