Glenallachie 2005/2023 - 18 y.o. - 1st Fill Amarone Hogshead #901061 - Best Dram

Special features: This single malt matured for 18 years in a first fill Amarone hogshead, which imparts fruity and spicy notes to the whisky. The limited release of only 280 bottles comes from the renowned Best Dram series by Michel Reick and presents itself at high cask strength and without chill filtration or coloring additives.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Pleasant fruity sweetness of Morello cherries that develops into a marble cake with dark chocolate.
• Palate: Almost creamy and chocolaty, followed by red fruits, especially dominant cherry notes and zesty red currants. Over time, the flavors blend into an intense cherry pie.
• Finish: Long aftertaste with chocolate cake and sunk cherries.
