Tasting Notes

Nose

Sherry blast — raisins, dried fruit, wood tannins, fresh violets, cherrywood, brown sugar — the PX and Oloroso immediately apparent

Palate

Thick, viscous mouthfeel — grape, dark chocolate, baking spices, clove, cardamom, toasted vanilla, heavy sherry influence throughout, the 46% carrying it all beautifully

Finish

Medium length — ginger and clove spice warmth, dry finish contrasting with the sweet palate, the Billy Walker signature cask management in full effect

Expert Review

8.5/10

Crowned World's Best Single Malt at the World Whiskies Awards 2025. Billy Walker — the man who transformed BenRiach and GlenDronach — purchased GlenAllachie from Pernod Ricard in 2017 and relaunched it as a sherry-cask-focused Speysider. Pedro Ximénez, Oloroso, and virgin oak. Non-chill filtered, natural colour, 46%. A blending workhorse reborn as a star.
