Explore the Glenallachie 10 year old Spanish Virgin Oak, a masterpiece from batch 3 of our virgin oak series. This mahogany malt delivers an exquisite blend of spicy and treacly flavours, meticulously matured in hogsheads crafted from spanish oak (quercus robur). Sourced from the cool, humid cantabrian mountains in galicia and asturias, this unique wood underwent a precise 18-month air-drying process before being toasted and charred to a medium level. This careful treatment opens up the oak, allowing this complex spirit to absorb its distinctive cask character.
Experience the result of secondary ageing in these virgin casks, which not only deepens the mahogany hue of the whisky but also creates a palate rich with notes of dried fruits, maraschino cherries, and subtle hints of stem ginger.
The nose is rich with lashings of orchard fruits, embracing a symphony of baking spices and the delightful essence of sticky toffee pudding. Subtle notes of brown sugar, glazed cherries, and a hint of citrus add layers of complexity.
As you embark on the palate, revel in the burst of flavours that unfold. Chocolate, coffee, and heather honey dance on the taste buds, creating a luxurious experience. The journey continues with nuanced notes of pepper, ginger, and molasses, offering a delightful interplay of sweet and spiced elements. The finish is a harmonious conclusion, featuring the lingering presence of banana and sultanas, leaving a lasting impression.
