GlenAllachie 2011/2023 Cask 7445 11 Year Old - 70cl/58.2%

GlenAllachie Distillery was established in 1967 by Mackinlay McPherson in Scotland's Speyside region, the fourth designed by William Delmé-Evans. Acquired and mothballed by Invergordon in 1985, it was revived in 2017 by Billy Walker, Trisha Savage, and Graham Stevenson, focusing on premium single malt whisky production.

This GlenAllachie 2011/2023 Cask 7445 11 Year Old is a Speyside single malt whisky, distilled on October 25, 2011, and bottled in July 2023, aged for 11 years in a single Ruby Port Pipe (cask #7445). At 58.2% ABV, it is non-chill filtered with natural color, yielding 797 bottles, making it highly rare. The flavor is profoundly influenced by the Port cask, displaying a bronze reddish hue; the nose features strawberries, cherries, heather, honey, toffee sauce, dark chocolate, raisins, and cinnamon. The palate is silky and full-bodied, with layers of dark chocolate, plum syrup, honey, raspberry, red berries, ginger, and subtle cocoa bitterness. The finish is long and dry, carrying red berries, raspberry sweetness, ginger, and red fruit spiciness, highlighting Speyside whisky's rich fruitiness and balanced depth.
