With few official bottlings and virtually no public profile, Glenallachie is uncommon, yet it can be exceptionally good.
How good? Good enough for Billy Walker to buy the distillery. Yes, that serial whisky entrepreneur who performed wonders reviving Glendronach, Benriach & Glenglassaugh is at it again. As of 2018, Glenallachie is his new baby, and his enthusiasm isn’t surprising. While it may be one of the younger distilleries in Speyside, dwarfed by neighbouring grand marques like Macallan, Aberlour, Glenfiddich and Balvenie, Glenallachie's lack of notoriety seems part of the charm for Walker. ”What I do know is that this is very good liquid, and that the inventory is excellent for single malt [whiskies date back to the 1970s] ...Having a distillery which is a blank piece of paper and with mature stock is always an added bonus" he adds. To celebrate its 50th anniversary (and offer punters a taste of what's in store), Billy Walker and the team released six limited editions in early 2018. We have one bottle only of the 1990 edition, matured in a single cask (No.2517) and bottled in February 2018 with just 144 bottles released. Needless to say, highly collectable.
54.6% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
