Glenallachie 2012 Cask #806890, 9 Year Old Peated Bourbon Barrel, Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky is part of the 6th Batch Release of the UK Exclusive Glenallachie Single Cask Series. After initial aging in a fresh ex-Bourbon cask before being re-racked into a first-fill sherry hogshead, the spirit was then transfered into an American oak cask which had previously held a heavily peated spirit distilled at GlenAllachie. The result is a deliciously smoky spirit balanced by our classic heather honeyed character. Hand numbered gift box and bottle. The outturn is 254 bottles
700ML at 60.1% alc./vol, unchilfiltered and natural colour.
