GlenAllachie
Tasting Notes
GlenAllachie's 9 Year Old 2012 Cuvée Cask Finish is a delightful fusion of flavors crafted by master blenders. This Speyside single malt whisky begins its journey in bourbon barrels, soaking up warm vanilla and caramel notes. It then graduates to an exceptional cask finish, carefully matured in select wine barriques from renowned regions like Languedoc, Valpolicella, and a premier cru chateaux in Bordeaux. The result is a harmonious symphony of floral and fruity aromas, with hints of orange blossom honey, marzipan, and toasted pistachios. On the palate, a delicious balance of fruit and nuts unfolds, revealing cocoa nibs, charred grains, dried currants, cranberries, candied orange peel, and gingerbread spice. The finish lingers with warm spices and roasted almonds, leaving a delightfully satisfying aftertaste. Bottled without chill filtration, this limited release whisky showcases the full-bodied and fruity essence of GlenAllachie's exceptional craftsmanship.
