The Glenallachie 2008 Single Cask Marsala Barrique German Whiskyfair Edition is a 14-year-old whisky, exclusively bottled for the German Whiskyfair. Distilled in 2008 and bottled in 2022, this Speyside gem from the Glenallachie distillery boasts an impressive cask strength of 57.2% ABV. It was matured in a single Marsala Barrique, a departure from the distillery's typical sherried expressions. With a limited release of just 314 bottles, this edition promises a rare and distinctive whisky experience. Founded in 1967 and currently under the stewardship of master distiller Billy Walker since 2017, Glenallachie is renowned for its adventurous approach to whisky-making. This particular bottling exemplifies the distillery's dedication to the intricate interplay between wood, spirit, and flavor. On the nose, you'll encounter toasted oats, liquorice, heather honey, hints of cardamom, black truffle, and ginger. The palate reveals waves of spiced heather honey, aniseed, and strawberry jam, followed by nutty and spicy notes. Bottled at natural color and free from chill filtration, this whisky is a true testament to Glenallachie's craftsmanship and innovation.
