Finish: Lingering mocha and sweet espresso, with warming ginger and cinnamon.

NOTES FROM THE WB TEAM

Since industry icon Billy Walker took over GlenAllachie in 2017, the distillery has truly come into its own, building a reputation for richly sherried single malts. This is our first official GlenAllachie exclusive (although we have previously released a GlenAllachie Octave by Duncan Taylor). We’re honoured to work with Billy and his team again, having released several exclusives together during his time at GlenDronach and BenRiach.
