GlenAllachie 12 Year Old Bottling Note

12 year old single malt Scotch whisky from GlenAllachie, released in mid-2018 following Billy Walker taking the reins of the distillery in 2017. This expression features whisky matured in Pedro Ximénez, Oloroso and virgin oak casks, resulting in a huge flavour profile of fruit, oak and vanilla.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Fried banana, almond, cola cubes, freshly cut oak.

Palate: Stem ginger and sultana, oily barley and buttery vanilla.

Finish: Very slightly chocolatey on the finish.

GlenAllachie 12 Year Old Reviews

It was amazing

Enjoyed all neat

Unpretentious

Unpretentious, laid-back, genuine. these buzzwords goes together with this whisky for what its for.

Nose: hay, vanilla, honey notes appear with water, banana, under ripe honeydew, hint of herbal tea, dried plum in the back ground. reminds me of Tomintoul.

Palate: young with vigor, fresh, quite oily, oaky, bitternote, ginger

Finish: oaky, coffee bean, medium length.

Good value for money but not for people who like their drams sweet imo.

Nothing special and far from sublime

An easy enough drinking sherried whisky but not a patch on the Glendronach 12 which is a cheaper and a far superior whisky. My advice is to go for the Glendronach 12 unless you find the Glenallachie with at least £10 off its price tag

Better than I thought at first

As my title suggests, when I first opened my bottle and tried this whisky, I was not impressed: it seemed very ordinary and at £41 for a 12yo, I felt a bit cheated. However, as I worked my way down the bottle over a period of weeks, I came to appreciate that this is a very good dram and well worth taking the time with it. As the previous reviewer says - 46% and ncf and no added colour always makes for a better whisky.

Sublime

Butterscotch, mazipan, raisins, mocha, honey.

The good bourbon, oloroso and px cask maturation really makes for a complex exotic and rewarding dram.

Bottled at 46% non-chillfiltered and non-coloured, as a whisky connoisseur I am sold.

This is such a great scotch it reminds me of the quality of 2012 Glendronach 12 when Billy Walker had rebooted that distillery.
He sold it to buy this one Glenallachie now he's the boss and you can really taste that quality he brought to Glendronach in the Glenallachie substance.

This is beautiful scotch and honest.
