Glenallachie 14 Year Old 2010 (cask 4952) - Chinquapin Cask Finish

A very fine GlenAllachie single cask expression, aged in a Chinquapin Barrel (cask #4952) for 14 years. The 2010 vintage single malt was bottled at a boisterous 61.6% ABV.

Chinquapin oak – not a word you hear every day, but one you’ll be glad you learned. Native to the US, this quirky cask wood brings out bold spice, deep sweetness, and a distinct herbal edge.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

A big hit of liquorice upfront, tempered by manuka honey’s earthy sweetness. Butterscotch and mocha follow in a swirl of richness, with crystallised ginger and cinnamon sugar adding warmth and lift. Think gingerbread latte meets oak cabinet.

Palate

Aniseed and vanilla extract spark things off, followed by a gooey mocha centre and a generous spoonful of treacle. There’s a floral lift (hello rose petals) and a velvety undercurrent of heather honey. Bold but balanced.

Finish

Long and layered, with ginger spice, dark toffee, and toasted oak sticking around for the encore.
