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.
