Glenallachie-Glenlivet 10 years Original Collection

Glenallachie-Glenlivet 10 Years Original Collection – Cadenhead

Glenallachie is known for its rich and approachable whiskies. This 10-year-old single malt, bottled by independent bottler Cadenhead, has been fully matured in bourbon casks. This maturation results in a well-balanced whisky with sweet, fruity, and spicy notes. Bottled at 46%, it delivers a smooth and full-flavored drinking experience.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Light and fresh aromas of vanilla, honey, and ripe apple, complemented by notes of tropical fruits such as pineapple and mango. Soft hints of oak and a touch of lemon zest add depth.

Palate

Creamy and rounded with a delightful sweetness of vanilla and butterscotch. Fruity notes of peach and juicy pear are supported by a subtle spiciness of cinnamon and white pepper.

Finish

Medium in length with a soft, sweet aftertaste featuring notes of honey, vanilla, and a touch of toasted oak. A light hint of citrus lingers pleasantly.

GlenAllachie Distillery

GlenAllachie Distillery is located in the heart of the Speyside region, near the town of Aberlour in Moray. Founded in 1967 by Mackinlay, McPherson & Co, the distillery has a rich history and a reputation for producing high-quality whiskies. After several ownership transfers, GlenAllachie was acquired by whisky icon Billy Walker in 2017, leading to a revival of the distillery.

A unique feature of GlenAllachie is its focus on artisanal production methods and the use of a wide range of casks for maturation. The distillery uses water from nearby Ben Rinnes, which contributes to the purity and character of their whiskies. GlenAllachie whiskies are known for their rich and complex flavour profiles, with notes of honey, sultanas, chocolate and spices.

The whiskies are matured in a variety of cask types, including ex-bourbon, sherry, wine and even rum casks, making for a deep and layered flavour experience. The combination of a beautiful location, innovative maturation techniques and a strong focus on quality makes GlenAllachie a respected name in the world of Scotch whisky.

Cadenhead’s is Scotland’s oldest independent bottler and traces its origins to 1842, when George Duncan established a wine and spirits business in Aberdeen. William Cadenhead joined the company in 1858 and later gave the business his name. Under his successor Robert Duthie, it became particularly renowned for single malt Scotch whisky and Demerara rum.

Following a major auction of its historic stock, Cadenhead’s was acquired in 1972 by J & A Mitchell & Co., owner of Springbank Distillery. This marked the beginning of a new chapter in Campbeltown, where the bottler remains based and continues to select and bottle its whiskies.

Cadenhead’s is known for holding a broad range of casks from both famous and less obvious distilleries. Age, reputation or fashion does not determine when a whisky is released; taste and quality come first. The range includes single casks, small batches and blended malts, alongside rum and other spirits. This independent approach, traditional working methods and highly characterful releases have earned Cadenhead’s an outstanding reputation among whisky enthusiasts worldwide.
