Glenallachie
12 year old 46%
First Fill Bourbon, Virgin oak, Oloroso and Pedro Ximinez casks
Tasted Oct 2019
As dense and malty on the nose as the 10 year old cask strength but with a noticeable sherry influence. Soft dried fruit, prune, walnut and raisins are balanced by a lithe, sharp greengage and lime note which cuts through the sherry. Grippy virgin American oak tannins and spicy sherry tannins are smoothed by a touch of treacle.
The palate opens with barley and toffee, followed by chunky malt and soft dried fruit. Lightly coffee'd middle with a subtle sherrywood spice and dark chocolate note. Long and grapey as the PX cask character appears. Lingering walnut, raisin and a little bitter spice. Good progression.
