Review of the
new Glenallachie 25 Year Old.
 The
Glenallachie 25 Year Old sits at the top
of the recently launched core range from
the Speyside distillery.
The
distillery describe it as being a
beautiful beaten copper colour following
its quarter of a century maturing in
Pedro Ximinez, Oloroso and American oak
casks.
Bottled at 48% ABV, it is naturally
coloured, non-chill-filtered and has an
RRP of £230.
William
Morrison's Tasting Notes:
Nose:
A deliciously inviting nose, full of
subtleties, sweet fondant orange,
raisins, touch of ginger, a hint of
cinnamon. Also notes of soft sweet
caramel and honey.
Taste:
Rich, full bodied. Dark chocolate and
sugared almond are joined by candied
sweet orange, deliciously juicy sultanas
and raisins, touch of ginger and
cinnamon.
Finish:
Long, those lovely sweet fruits linger
long into the finish before leaving some
coffee notes and lovely mildly drying
oak spices.
Comment:
A deliciously stunning example of
Glenallachie and by far the best
expression I have had from this Speyside
distillery. From nose to finish this
does not let you down, I would guess the
folks at Glenallachie know this hence
the asking price but if your pockets are
deep enough this will not disappoint.
Bottling at 48% ABV has also clearly
added to the pleasure.
