Balvenie The Sweet Toast of American Oak 12 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl

The distillery says - "Inspired to produce an even fruitier, sweeter Balvenie, Apprentice Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie had the bright idea to import Virgin Oak barrels from Kentucky. After deep toasting them at The Balvenie Cooperage they were filled with Balvenie aged in ex-bourbon barrels. The result is a delectably complex whisky with notes of candied fruit, coconut and delicate vanilla."

GlenAllachie 10 Years Old Spanish Virgin Oak Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl

For Batch Three of the Glenallachie Virgin Oak Series, they first matured the whisky in American Oak (Quercus Alba) Ex-Bourbon Barrels. To add a delicate and distinctive twist, the whisky then underwent additional maturation for approximately 18 months in specially selected Spanish virgin oak casks.  This rich bronze malt attains its spicy, treacly flavours from hogsheads made of Spanish Oak (Quercus Robur) sourced from Galicia and Asturias regions, in particular the Cantabrian Mountains which have a cooler climate and greater humidity. Before being filled, the wood is air dried for around 18 months, opening up the oak for the Glenallachie spirit to extract the cask character.

GlenAllachie 7 Years Old Hungarian Virgin Oak Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl

For Batch Three of the Glenallachie Virgin Oak Series, they first matured this whisky in American Oak (Quercus Alba) Ex-Bourbon Barrels. To add a delicate and distinctive twist, the whisky then underwent additional maturation for approximately 18 months in specially selected Hungarian virgin oak casks (Quercus Petraea), from the mountains of northeast Hungary's Zemplen Forest. It's rocky volcanic soil, along with its colder climate and higher altitude means that the trees in this region grow very slowly, giving the oak a tight grain. The barrels were then toasted and charred to a medium level.

GlenAllachie 8 Years Old Scottish Virgin Oak Finish 2023 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl

For Batch 3 in the GlenAllachie Virgin Oak Series, the distillery have first matured the whisky in American Oak (Quercus Alba) Ex-Bourbon Barrels. The whisky then undergoes additional maturation for approximately 18 months in specially selected Virgin Scottish Oak Casks. It is a limited release. This very rare malt obtains its sophisticated flavours from casks made of Scottish Sessile Oak (Quercus Petraea) sourced from the Atlantic coast of Scotland. Scottish oak is incredibly challenging to work with at all stages of production; growing, milling and coopering. Its rarity, costliness and tendency to knot mean it is scarcely used for whisky maturation. Before being filled, the wood was air dried for 36 months, then toasted and charred to a medium level. Using just a handful of casks, the resulting spirit delivers a truly exceptional drinking experience, oozing with blonde chocolate with hints of zesty orange and smooth toffee.
