A 2019 addition to the GlenAllachie core range, this 15 year old single malt was treated to a finishing period in sherry casks before bottling. The casks in question were a combination of puncheons and hogsheads that previously held Pedro Ximénez and oloroso sherry. Master distiller Billy Walker described this expression as having an "exceptional balance of the distillery’s spirit and the influence of the sherry casks used during maturation." We'd have to agree. This bottle was produced before the range underwent a redesign in 2024.
Peanut brittle, dates and a big scoop of chocolate ice cream.
Walnut, raisin, Christmas spices and fresh ginger.
Coffee, Turkish delight and just a hint of flaky sea salt.
Out of this World. Superb!
Flawless. My favourite.
It certainly pales by comparison with the 18 year old but is pleasant and acceptable value for money
Expected so much more. I read a review which said that GA 15 was like drinking Glendronach 15 Revival on steroids. For me I'm afraid it wasn't.
Lovely smooth dram. If you like your sherried malts, this is a good one
