The GlenAllachie Distillery today launches a sixth batch of its coveted Cask Strength 10-year-old single malt. The release follows in the footsteps of acclaimed previous batches, most notably the fourth instalment which scooped the ultimate accolade of Worlds Best Single Malt at the World Whiskies Awards 2021.

Batch 6 (UK RRSP 60), which is limited to just 6,500 cases worldwide, is a combination of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry puncheons, Rioja barriques and virgin oak casks, all personally selected and blended by whisky industry veteran, Billy Walker.

Each instalment of the decade-old expression emphasises Walkers distinguished expertise in wood management, using only the finest quality casks expertly sourced from across the globe. A recently appointed member of Whisky Magazines prestigious Hall of Fame, Walker holds widespread acclaim within the industry for his hands-on approach and innovative maturation philosophy.

Presented at 57.8% ABV, without added colouring or chill filtration, the bold Cask Strength spirit is overflowing with dark chocolate fondant, tangy orange, heather honey and warm frangipane tart.

Commenting on this latest batch release, Walker revealed:

When we acquired The GlenAllachie Distillery, we knew where we wanted to take the personality to the spirit. Concocting each batch of our 10-year-old really takes me back to that initial mission. I truly believe we are achieving what we set out to establish; a rich, bold, predominantly sherried spirit with interesting twists introduced by the wood.

The delicious whisky we bottle as our 10-year-old Cask Strength really is testament to our wonderful team and the excellent wood we source. Like all previous batches, I know this batch wont disappoint!
