GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Chinquapin Oak Finish
GlenAllachie
Tasting Notes
A delightful single malt whisky, this GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Chinquapin Oak Finish tantalizes the senses with its alluring aroma and rich flavors. The nose greets you with a delightful combination of pecan and peanut brittle, subtly complemented by the warmth of nutmeg and cinnamon. On the palate, it's a delightful interplay of flavors – chocolate-chip cookies, heather honey, waxy peels, and a hint of earthy barley. The finish lingers with notes of vanilla pod, crunched peppercorns, and a caramel sweetness. This expression spent 18 months resting in Chinquapin oak casks from the Ozarks in Missouri, USA, after initial aging in ex-bourbon barrels, resulting in a unique and well-rounded flavor profile. Bottled at a robust 48% ABV, it's a whisky that promises to delight both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
