This 8-year-old GlenAllachie was bottled at 48% after finishing in an ex-Koval Rye Cask.ÂÂ
Producer Description
Bottled at 48%, This golden malt was first matured in the finest American Barrels with an additional maturation period in Organic Rye Quarter Casks from Chicago's Koval Distillery. The wood to liquid ratio is greater here, meaning the signature Rye spiciness has a greater impact on the spirit. We closely monitor the process to produce an exciting, sensational result.
700ml ml
Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: silky, honeyed and juicy; Midori melon and Starburst fruit candies; a backbone of decadent rye spice: dill, cinnamon and cardamom.
Palate: big, rich, spicy and coating; a rush of velvety honey and vanilla icing; more oily rye spice: cracked pepper, cinnamon sticks, clove and cardamom, with a trace of dill; soft toasted oak and more light juicy fruits: Midori melon, orange and Starburst fruit candies.
Finish: medium-short, coating and spicy with soft toasted oak.
Comment: if a malt whisky and American Rye had a baby, this would be it...
Producer Tasting Note
Nose: Full on rich spices, cinnamon and nutmeg with waves of honey and butterscotch.
Taste: Intense sweet spices enriched with honey, butterscotch, cooking apples and cloves.

This whisky was featured on Day 2 of our 2025 KWM Still Not An Advent Calendar Tasting Series! You can read more about the whisky here.
The venerable 15-Year-Old from GlenAllachie has received an updated label which no longer looks like it came from the town of Bedrock as designed by a modern stone-age family. The new label hosts more readable fonts and a baby blue background.
First launched in 2019, The GlenAllachie 15 is said to be the "jewel in their crown" for the distillery. Bottled at 46%, the whisky was finished in puncheons and hogsheads that previously held Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry.
Producer Description
"This spectacular Scotch whisky embodies our unwavering dedication to obtaining Sherry wood of the highest standard. A watchful eye throughout the maturation journey ensures the whisky is bottled at its optimum."

This Single Malt Whisky from Cotswolds Distillery was aged in ex-peated quarter casks (hmm, which distillery could those be from...). The peated casks lend nuance and, well, notes of peat to the unpeated Cotswolds Whisky.
Quarter casks, to be exact. These 125-litre casks typically offer big flavour and influence on the maturing whisky within a shorter amount of time when compared to a full-size 200 Litre Barrel or 250 Litre Hogshead. Big wood influence, yeah, but don't expect this to be a peat monster, by any means.
It's also pretty cool that this is all floor-malted local barley (Anchor and Fermentis varieties). Love the 'grain to glass' ethos!
