Origin: Scotland

Glenallachie 2010 Chinquapin Barrel #4952 Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
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.
Distillery Information
One of a few distilleries built to produce blending whisky, GlenAllachie (pronounced ‘Glen-al-ACK-ee’) was founded by Mackinlay, McPherson and Co to provide malt whisky for Mackinlay blends. The distillery stands in the heart of Speyside, at the foot of Ben Rinnes and in relatively close proximity to Aberlour. Both whisky distilleries draw their water from springs in the mountains. All of the three million litre annual production is intended for blending and it is rare to find single malt whisky from the GlenAllachie distillery. All of the spirit is matured onsite in ex-bourbon casks; the distillery boasts fourteen onsite warehouses. The building was planned as early as 1940, by the famed architect William Delmé-Evans, designer of Isle of Jura, though GlenAllachie was not founded until 1967.
