Description

📝 Tasting Notes

Glenallachie Connoisseurs Choice 2008 is noted for balancing the distillery’s core honeyed and fruity profile with the subtle, mature influence of the refill sherry wood.
Characteristic Notes
Nose Inviting aromas of vanilla pod, candied pineapple, and a hint of mint. Deeper notes include milk chocolate, red apple, and orange zest.
Palate Rich and velvety texture. Flavours of lemon zest and redcurrant are balanced by sweet pear, soft liquorice, and black pepper spice. The sweet sherry influence is well-integrated with toasted nuts and stewed fruits.
Finish Long and warming, with a delightful persistence of spice and a refreshing citrus note.
Note on Cask Type

The use of a Refill Sherry Hogshead rather than a powerful first-fill cask allows the Glenallachie spirit to shine through while the cask contributes mature spice and subtle dark fruit sweetness, making for a refined and complex profile at a high proof.
