Indulge in the exclusivity of GlenAllachie's 8 Year Old Scottish Virgin Oak from Batch 3 of their Virgin Oak Series. This rare single malt boasts additional maturation in casks crafted from Scottish Sessile Oak (Quercus Petrae), sourced from the challenging conditions of the Atlantic coast. The scarcity and complexity of working with Scottish oak, known for its rarity, costliness, and knotty nature, make it a seldom-used medium for whisky maturation.

Before its journey into the cask, the wood underwent a meticulous 36-month air-drying process, followed by toasting and charring to a medium level. Despite the challenges, this desirable oak imparts opulent notes of blonde chocolate, accompanied by subtle hints of zesty orange and smooth toffee.
