In my third ttip to Scotland i finally arrived to one of the best distilleries in Speyside, the one controled and owned by the legend itself: Billy Walker. The GlenAllachie, which is the gaelic word for "Valley of The Rocks", Is a very good looking place, where some heavily sherried speyside whiskies are made. I believe most people just loved their 10yo Cask Strength and the 12yo which is almost purple in color. Now it is the time to try one of their youngest expressions: The 8 year old. Bottled at 46%abv. On the nose, this is a breakfast: Honey, granola, macadamia nuts, hay, pecans. Grassy. After a first sip it released a note of  and old orange peel. On the palate, three notes, but everything well delivered and tasty. Old raisins, fruitspice and honeycomb. Aftertaste is where some youngness is felt, but this is so well crafted that it hids behind a nice hay and tobacco leaf note. Dry. Overall, for an 8yo, this is very good. The 46%abv is important to give the whisky drinker a nice experience, but that was also risky since this is a young dram. Luckily for GlenAllachie, the casks used seem to be absolutley amazing, which is Billy Walker's speciality. Totally recommended, my score for it is 88 over 100.
