Glenallachie 12 Years Free Miniature 50ml
GLENALLACHIE 12 YEARS, the heart of our range, a landmark bottling. Our best casks selected and bottled under the careful eye of our Master Distiller Billy Walker. In this era of mergers and consolidations, we go against the grain; an independent, Scottish owned and managed whisky company. We chose to step away from the corporate treadmill and short-term targets. Instead, we focus on the important things; making great whisky and enjoying life.
Producer: GLENALLACHIE
Vintage: 12
Alcohol Percentage: 46
Appearance: Medium Brown
Country: Scotland
Palate:
sets off with a mouth-coating floral honey sweetness, vanilla and apples accompanied by some touches of café au lait and milk chocolate; the palate dilutes a bit over time, as the 46% are apparently not sufficient to carry the delicate aromas through to the end, but the palate does not water down entirely either; the finish is of medium length and warm, the floral honey and café au lait linger on, while the fresh citrus touch makes a reappearance towards the end.
Please note that taste might differ between individuals
Nose:
floral honey sweetness with some vanilla, apples, and a fresh touch of citrus; the sherry casks add some raisins, café au lait, and milk chocolate into the mixture which is rounded off by a few cloves – quite pleasant on the nose and several notes to unpack without the whisky losing its profile.
