GlenAllachie 12 Year Old Moscatel Wood Finish
GlenAllachie 12 Year Old Moscatel Wood Finish is a beautifully expressive Speyside single malt that begins its life in American oak ex-bourbon barrels before enjoying an extended finishing period in Moscatel wine barriques. These sweet, floral Portuguese wine casks bring layers of stone fruit, honeyed sweetness, and aromatic elegance to GlenAllachie’s naturally rich, malty profile. Bottled at 48% ABV, with natural colour and no chill filtration, this whisky captures the full depth and vibrancy of the Moscatel influence while maintaining Billy Walker’s hallmark richness and balance.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Apricot, peach syrup, heather honey, vanilla, orange blossom, sultanas, and warm oak.
Palate: Rich and silky with flavours of honey, ripe peaches, golden raisins, sweet malt, toffee, cinnamon, and gentle floral notes from the Moscatel wine. Well-balanced sweetness and oak spice.
Finish: Medium-long with lingering fruit nectar, honey, vanilla, and sweet spice.
Why This Whisky Stands Out
- Finished in Moscatel wine barriques
- 48% ABV for deeper flavour
- Natural colour & non-chill filtered
- Elegant, fruity, honeyed profile
- A standout release in the GlenAllachie Wood Finish series
- Ideal for fans of fruity, dessert-like single malts
