GlenAllachie 2012 Vintage Cuvée Wine Cask Finish
Single Malt
GlenAllachie // Speyside, Scotland
For this release in the Wine Cask Series, Master Blender Billy Walker began with single malt distilled in 2012 which had its primary maturation in American oak ex-bourbon barrels. He selected red wine casks from four European wineries — one each from Valpolicella and the Languedoc, and two from Bordeaux. The single malt then finished its aging for over 20 months in the various barriques before Walker blended and bottled the whisky at 48% ABV.
This bottling was announced in late January 2023 with global retailers expected to see the product on its shelves in the coming weeks. (SRP £53.99).
