GLENALLACHIE 12 YEARS OLD - SAUTERNES WINE CASK SERIES - 48%

€75,00

In stock

A 12 year old Glenallachie from the Wine Cask Series. Aged in ex-bourbon barrels with an aging in barrels that previously contained Sauternes, a well-known French dessert wine. Not artificially colored and not cold filtered, bottled at the grade of 48%.

In 2017 the distillery was bought by Billy Walker. Unlike in the past, where most of the single malt production ended up in blended, with the arrival of the new master distiller, now almost all of the production is placed on the market as single malt.

Nose: Pineapple, lemon zest, a pinch of spicy cinnamon.

Palate: Fresh peach and pear, pastries with crunchy cane sugar, citrus peel and wax.

Final: Medium persistent with notes of grapefruit and beeswax.
