The Glenallachie 21yo Batch Number One is a limited release of 1,600 bottles worldwide, bottled at a cask strength of 51.4% ABV. This whisky is non-chill filtered and boasts a deep mahogany color drawn from its maturation in five Pedro Ximenez puncheons and hogsheads dating back to 1997 and 1998. Glenallachie Distillery, established in 1967 and purchased by a consortium led by Billy Walker in 2017, is renowned for its high-quality spirit. Billy Walker, the Glenallachie Master Distiller, is dedicated to wood management, meticulously overseeing the whisky’s development until achieving the perfect balance of distillery and cask influence. The nose of this whisky is rich with dark chocolate, honey, mocha, orange zest, grapefruit, and cinnamon. The palate offers a complex mix of fruit cake, caramel, treacle, stewed plums, chocolate, and orange peel, followed by a lingering aftertaste of wintery spices, cinnamon, and ginger. This whisky is a testament to Billy Walker's expertise in selecting and marrying casks, creating a rich, sherried flavor profile that complements the distillery's archetypal spirit. The resulting whisky is a highly limited release, making it a must-try for whisky enthusiasts and collectors.
