The Glenallachie Distillery Edition gives some of the spotlight on its label to the Ben Rinnes mountain. Sitting at the foot of the mountain, Glenallachie uses water that comes from a spring 3,000ft up Ben Rinnes' north-east face.
Caramel-dipped apples and pears, with hints of brown sugar and digestive biscuits.
Oodles of vanilla, with a zesty kick of fresh citrus at the centre.
Fruity esters last long on the finish.
Trust me that is the only source of water for the distillery!!!
Good rounded taste with a sweet aftertaste
A smooth tasting treat! This whisky will transport you back to speyside and particularly Aberlour in flavour. The nose for me is a spirity flapjack, a palate of spicy apples with a warm long lasting finish.
Recently I bought a bottle of glenallachie for the first time. Definitely found my new dram.
How can the spring be at 3,000 ft when the mountain itself is only 2775 ft high? Anyway to suggest that a spring at that height would be the sole or major fresh water source is nonsense. It would barely run outwith mid-winter and I'm sure that SEPA wouldn't grant consent.
