Spice, swagger, and serious cask character.
From the creative mind of Billy Walker comes another gem in the Sinteis Series — this time matured in rare Chinquapin oak casks, harvested from the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. The result? A single malt bursting with bold, spicy energy and rich, warming complexity.
Distilled in 2014 and bottled after a full-on flavour soak in Chinquapin oak, this whisky’s got attitude. Expect waves of nutmeg, cinnamon, and toasty oak layered over GlenAllachie’s classic honeyed malt and stone fruit backbone. Un-chillfiltered, natural colour, and bottled at a punchy ABV — this dram doesn’t hold back.
Cask Explorer’s Dream: Chinquapin oak is a rare beast in Scotch maturation — delivering a spicy, oak-driven punch unlike your standard ex-bourbon or sherry.
Crafted by a Legend: Billy Walker’s cask wizardry is all over this.
One-Off Wonder: Limited release, UK Exclusive - natural presentation — this is a proper whisky for those chasing character, not conformity.
Nose: Toasted coconut, cinnamon bark, orange peel, and warming oak spice.
Palate: Creamy toffee, nutmeg, clove, and honeyed malt with a dry, spicy finish that lingers long.

Best savoured neat to appreciate the full cask influence, or with a few drops of water to tame the fire and unlock even more spice and citrus.
Nose: Liquorice, butterscotch and grilled honeycomb, with candied orchard fruits, cocoa and treacle tart.
Taste: Ginger, butterscotch and candied lemon slices, followed by fig jam, blackberries and molasses, with cinnamon spice and rich cocoa on the finish.
