Meikle Toir, pronounced MEE-KUHL-TOR, is the new exciting release from the renowned master distiller behind The GlenAllachie, Billy Walker.

Distilled at the GlenAllachie Distillery, the Meikle Toir is a bit unusual for the Speyside region, as it is in fact a peated malt, the first peated whisky to have ever been produced at the distillery.

GlenAllachie fans can expect the same level of quality from the Meikle Toir range but with an entirely new smokey spin.

The ethos behind this new brand couldn't be expressed better than in Billy Walker's own words, ''Being independent, we have complete freedom to do things our way. From a lengthy 160-hour fermentation period for an ester-rich spirit, to the use of mainland peat for a sweet smoke style, to the unparalleled quality of the casks sourced for maturation; every step of the whisky-making journey has been meticulously considered and masterfully optimised to steer the ensuing aromatic and flavour characteristics of the whisky.''
