  Glen Keith 1983 The Pool of The Salmon Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky 100 cl 43%

  Item no.: 505956-098460-15

  Vintage 1983 and no age statement. That is how it was written when the year told you enough on its own. The whisky was distilled in the middle of the Seagram years at Glen Keith, where the distillery was used to try things out before they were rolled out elsewhere.

  The expert's description

  Glen Keith 1983 The Pool of the Salmon is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Keith in Speyside, matured in oak casks and bottled at 43% in a litre bottle.

  The bottle carries a vintage rather than a number of years. The spirit dates from 1983, a period when Glen Keith produced for Seagram blends and was only rarely bottled as a single malt for the open market. The casks were oak, and together with the 43% that gives a calm, old-fashioned style.

  Glen Keith held an unusual place in Scotch whisky. Seagram built the distillery as an experimental plant and ran triple distillation there for a period, something otherwise associated almost entirely with the Lowlands and Ireland. When production stopped in 1999, one of the more experimental addresses in Speyside disappeared for fourteen years.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dried apricot and malt, with beeswax and a dusty library note. There is a muted floral quality that older Speyside often develops in the bottle.

  Palate

  Soft and oily. Honey, hazelnut and baked apple, with a lightly soapy-floral turn typical of spirit from this period. The dryness arrives late.

  Finish

  Medium and calm. Malt, dried fruit and a dry oak close with no sharp edges.

  Investment potential

  Medium. A 1983 vintage bottling cannot be made again, and Glen Keith as a single malt from the Seagram years was only ever bottled in limited quantity. The litre bottle and the old subtitle make it easier for collectors hunting that specific period to recognise.

  Did you know?

  Glen Keith was built on the site of an old meal mill and stands right beside Strathisla, one of Scotland's oldest distilleries. The two neighbours have more than a century between them in age, yet share the same small town.

  Glen Keith 1995/2013 Part Des Anges 17 year old Single Speyside Malt Whisky 55,5%

  Item no.: B22227865438-209

  The series is called Closed Distilleries, and when the cask was selected in 2013 the name fitted precisely. Glen Keith had stood still since 1999, and a French bottling house got hold of a bourbon cask from 1995. It yielded 175 bottles.

  The expert's description

  Glen Keith 1995/2013 Part des Anges 17 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a bourbon cask and bottled at cask strength 55.5%.

  The cask was filled in 1995 and emptied in 2013 after 17 years. The bottling gave 175 bottles, non-chill filtered and with no added colour, and the whisky formed part of the Closed Distilleries series — Part des Anges' selection of whisky from distilleries that were silent or shut. The irony is that Glen Keith was started up again in 2013, the very year the bottle appeared.

  Part des Anges is a French bottling house founded in 2005 by Thierry Richard and Laurent Buob. They have specialised in whisky from distilleries without a future, which has produced a set of bottles that now works rather like an archive of a period when Scotch whisky was shutting down instead of building.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Concentrated and bright. Pineapple, yellow melon and vanilla pod, with a sharp orange peel on top. A cask that has had plenty of time without taking over.

  Palate

  Powerful and oily without being heavy. Tropical fruit, coconut and honey, with a firm peppery middle from the 55.5%. The malt sits clearly beneath it all.

  Finish

  Very long. Vanilla, pineapple and white pepper drying slowly into a note of pale oak.

  Did you know?

  During the fourteen years Glen Keith stood silent, parts were stripped from the plant to keep other distilleries running. When the decision came to reopen, there was not much left to start from — the new distillery was in practice built inside the old walls.

  Glen Keith 1996/2023 Signatory Vintage 26 years old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 58%

  Item no.: 059763-615-152

  The spirit ran off the stills on 11 September 1996. Three years later Glen Keith closed, and fourteen years passed before production started again. This cask sat quietly through the whole of that period and was only emptied in 2023.

  The expert's description

  Glen Keith 1996/2023 Signatory Vintage 26 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a 2nd fill oloroso sherry butt, bottled at cask strength 58%.

  The cask was filled on 11 September 1996 and emptied on 7 July 2023 — sherry butt number 7, which gave 635 individually numbered bottles, non-chill filtered and with no added colour. The whisky belongs to Symington's Choice, where Andrew Symington selects the casks himself, and a 2nd fill oloroso butt is a deliberate call: there is sherry enough for depth and dried fruit, but not so much that a 26 year old spirit gets run over.

  Glen Keith only got its own permanent single malt onto the market in 2017. For the decades before that almost the entire output went into blends, and the only bottles a whisky drinker could realistically find came from independent bottlers. That is precisely why a 26 year old from 1996 is one of the few ways to meet the distillery as it worked before the shutdown.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Spicy and indulgent. Raisins, figs and dates first, then honey and a layer of soft vanilla. Leather sits behind it, along with a calm, dark spice note.

  Palate

  Velvety despite the 58%. Gingerbread and malt loaf, with blackstrap molasses and dried fruit filling the middle. A nutty bitterness arrives at the end and keeps the sweetness in check.

  Finish

  Very long. Dried fruit and spice drying slowly into walnut shell and a dry sherry note.

  Did you know?

  Glen Keith did not have its own official single malt in the range until 2017. The distillery was built in 1957 and for six decades supplied malt almost entirely to other people's blends, while the independent bottlers kept the name alive for whisky drinkers.

  Glenallachie 11 Years Old Single Cask Bourbon Barrel Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 57,9%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-1972783196

  The bourbon cask sets the tone here: vanilla, sweet oak and a clean, bright fruitiness layered straight onto the distillate's own complexity. Drawn from a single cask at 57.9%, this 11 year old offers both depth and drive — a few drops of water will open it up further if you like.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 11 Year Old is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky matured in a bourbon barrel and bottled at cask strength, 57.9% ABV.

  Because the entire contents come from a single cask, there is no other distillate to balance against — this is the distillery's raw character, filtered through American oak. Bourbon barrels are smaller than the sherry casks GlenAllachie is otherwise known for, giving the whisky more direct wood contact in less time and a distinct, sweet vanilla profile.

  This series has been bottled exclusively for Denmark, and as with any single cask release, the complexity in the glass is unique to this one cask alone.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Vanilla and sweet oak up front, with a fresh fruitiness hinting at pear and green apple.

  Palate

  Full-bodied and oily, with vanilla caramel and a warm spice note that builds towards the finish.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with a dry, oak-driven close that invites a drop of water.

  Investment potential

  As an exclusive single cask bottling from GlenAllachie, released in a limited run for the Danish market, this 11 year old sits at the high end of investment potential. Bourbon-matured single cask releases from respected Speyside distilleries hold solid interest among collectors.

  Did you know?

  Because bourbon barrels are smaller than the puncheons and butts GlenAllachie often uses for sherry maturation, the whisky reaches deeper wood contact sooner — part of the explanation for the pronounced vanilla character in this 11 year old.

  GlenAllachie 12 Years Old 2013 Single Cask Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 61,7%

  Item no.: 22227865479-110778

  Some casks never get diluted by others – they are left alone to develop a strength and depth that only time and cask power can give. GlenAllachie 12 Year 2013 Single Cask is one such cask, bottled straight without blending.

  Expert's Description

  GlenAllachie 12 Year 2013 Single Cask is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky at cask strength 61.7%, distilled in 2013 and bottled from a single cask, Cask No. 4385, after 12 years of maturation.

  Because the whisky comes from one cask alone, it carries the imprint of that cask's history — no smoothing from other casks, no compromises. The high strength means every drop concentrates the aromas markedly, and a few drops of water can open up even more layers.

  GlenAllachie has made single cask bottlings something of a signature activity under Billy Walker's leadership, where each cask is assessed individually before being released on its own rather than folded into a larger batch.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Ripe fruits and honey meet spices and a distinct oak note.

  Palate

  Dried fruit and vanilla dance with dark caramel, while the high cask strength delivers a spicy warmth that spreads across the palate.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with a trailing note of oak spice and caramel.

  Investment Potential

  Single cask bottlings from GlenAllachie are by definition unrepeatable, as each cask yields only a limited number of bottles. Investment potential is rated high, supported by growing interest in the distillery's individual cask releases.

  Did You Know?

  Cask strength means the whisky is bottled straight from the cask without being reduced with water first — the strength therefore reflects exactly what the cask has given up over the years.

  GlenAllachie 12 Years Old Single Cask PX Puncheon Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 59,2%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197

  One cask, one story. This GlenAllachie 12 Year Old comes from a single PX puncheon, poured at cask strength, and it shows: rich Christmas cake, gingerbread and a good pour of caramel sauce. Nothing here has been blended away — what you taste is exactly what that one cask gave up over twelve years.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 12 Year Old is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky matured in a PX Puncheon and bottled at cask strength, 59.2% ABV.

  Letting a distillate mature alone in a single PX-seasoned puncheon, rather than blending it with sibling casks, lets the sherry's dense sweetness work its way fully into the malt. A puncheon is larger than a standard sherry butt, giving the spirit a slower, more even contact with the wood — often producing a deeper, rounder sweetness than smaller casks allow.

  The result is a whisky where spiced baking notes and dark fruit stand out clearly, without being drowned by tannin. It is non-chill filtered and has kept its natural colour, so what reaches the glass sits as close to the cask as possible.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Christmas cake and gingerbread meet spiced orange peel, with a hint of baking spice suggesting cinnamon and clove.

  Palate

  Caramel sauce and crème brûlée arrive first, followed by the same warm spice profile from the nose — now leaning towards dark chocolate.

  Finish

  Long and spiced, with sweetness slowly giving way to dry oak notes and a last trace of orange.

  Investment potential

  As an exclusive single cask bottling from a respected Speyside distillery, this 12 year old sits at the high end of investment potential. A single cask can never be recreated, which makes every bottle from this release part of a limited, unrepeatable story.

  Did you know?

  A puncheon typically holds considerably more liquid than a standard sherry butt, giving the whisky more room to breathe during maturation — yet still only from this one cask, never blended with another.

  GlenAllachie 16 Year Old Billy Walker 50th Anniversary Present Edition Single Speyside Malt Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 22221111115-855896

  Some bottles mark an anniversary. This one marks a person. GlenAllachie 16 Year Old Present Edition honours Billy Walker's fifty years in the whisky industry, finished in a cask you rarely encounter in Scotch whisky: Japanese Mizunara oak, cut from trees that can stand for two centuries before they are ready to use.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 16 Year Old Present Edition is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky, finished in Mizunara Virgin Oak casks after 1st fill PX and Oloroso sherry casks, bottled at 48% ABV.

  Present Edition is the second release in a three-part series GlenAllachie created to mark Billy Walker's half-century behind the stills. The series is built around three chapters of his career — past, present and a gift toward the future — and this expression represents the present: a spirit given extra time to mature on a cask that is as rare as it is sought after.

  Mizunara oak grows slowly and unevenly, which makes the wood porous and notoriously difficult to coop. Only a handful of cooperages worldwide have mastered the craft, and the result is a cask that lends notes of sandalwood, coconut and oriental spice — a character quite distinct from American or European oak.

  The whisky matured first in PX and Oloroso sherry casks before moving into Mizunara virgin oak, where it picked up its final layers of character. It was bottled in June 2022 in a run of 2,900 bottles worldwide, placing it among the rarer releases in GlenAllachie's anniversary programme.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark chocolate and heather honey meet toasted almonds and sandalwood, while ginger, orange peel and a touch of coconut add an exotic edge.

  Palate

  Heather honey and cinnamon unfold alongside candied ginger and demerara sugar, carried by dark berries, hazelnuts and a syrupy note of fig.

  Finish

  Long and spiced, with a gentle echo of sandalwood and honey trailing quietly away.

  Did you know?

  Did you know Mizunara trees need to reach at least 200 years of age before the wood is suitable for cask production — meaning every Mizunara cask represents two centuries of patience long before a single drop of whisky ever touched it?

  GlenAllachie 18 years old New Edition Single Speyside Malt Whisky 70 cl 46%

  Item no.: 222345-463

  Eighteen is the age at which a whisky either finds its shape or loses itself in too much wood. GlenAllachie 18 Year Old New Edition belongs firmly in the first camp: a whisky in which bourbon and sherry casks have been allowed to work together for close to two decades, without either ever drowning out the other.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 18 Year Old New Edition Single Speyside Malt Whisky is matured in a combination of Bourbon, PX and Oloroso Sherry casks and bottled at 46% ABV.

  The blend of cask types is Billy Walker's signature: the bourbon casks contribute lightness and sweetness, while the PX and Oloroso Sherry casks add depth and spiced complexity. The result is an 18 year old that shows just how much balance can be achieved when cask selection is treated as a craft rather than a formula.

  The whisky is both non-chill filtered and free of added colour, and the eighteen years in wood are clearly felt in both aroma and finish.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Ripe pears and honey meet warm spice and a hint of dark chocolate, underpinned by a light nuttiness from the bourbon casks.

  Palate

  Sherry sweetness and dried apricot weave together with cinnamon, nutmeg and a touch of toasted almond.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with a lingering spiced sweetness and a slightly bitter chocolate note that rounds the experience off beautifully.

  Medium. An 18 year old core release with a carefully considered cask mix is a whisky that builds its reputation over time rather than through one-off rarity - and with GlenAllachie's rising standing under Billy Walker, it is a solid addition to any collection of age-stated Speyside whisky.

  Did you know?

  The New Edition designation reflects the fact that GlenAllachie continuously fine-tunes the cask composition of its core releases as new vintages and cask combinations become available - so while the name stays the same, the style evolves from release to release.

  GlenAllachie 1989 Cask 100049 Batch 1 Single Speyside Malt Whisky 58,1%

  Item no.: 22227865438-100201

  Distilled on 7 June 1989 and left to rest in a sherry butt for nearly three decades before being bottled in October 2018. Only 485 bottles of this 29 year old GlenAllachie exist, and each one carries an entire distillery lifetime within it.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 1989 Cask 100049 Batch 1 is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky distilled on 7 June 1989 and bottled in October 2018 from a single sherry butt, cask #100049, at 29 years of age and 58.1% ABV.

  The cask has been allowed to work undisturbed through almost three generations of whisky drinkers, and the result is a dram with the depth and complexity that only comes with time. The 1989 vintage predates most of GlenAllachie's better-known modern releases, making this bottling a rare glimpse into the distillery's older stock.

  With only 485 bottles from a single cask, there is no going back once the bottles are gone – this is spirit that cannot be recreated.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Deep and complex, with mature sherry notes, dried fruit and a hint of old oak that speaks to decades of cask rest.

  Palate

  Rich and full-bodied, with layers of dark chocolate, walnuts and a warm spiciness that unfolds slowly.

  Finish

  Long and dry, with a lingering aftertaste of oak and spice that stays with you.

  Investment Potential

  High. A 29 year old single cask from a 1989 vintage with only 485 bottles ranks among the distillery's rarest releases, and that combination of age and low bottle count is exactly what serious collectors chase.

  Did You Know?

  When this whisky was laid down in 1989, the GlenAllachie distillery had not yet experienced the change of ownership that later led to Billy Walker's takeover and revival of the site – meaning the cask sat waiting through the entire modern era of GlenAllachie's history.

  GlenAllachie 2008 Ruby Port Hogshead 13 years old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 55,2%

  Item no.: 505956-498796-465-4

  Port wine has left its clear mark on this 2008 GlenAllachie. A Ruby Port hogshead has given the whisky a deep, berry-laden character, and 13 years of maturation have given the cask plenty of time to work. With a cask strength of 55.2% and just 313 bottles from cask 2583, this is a rare release exclusive to the Danish market.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 2008 Ruby Port Hogshead 13 Year Old is a single cask Speyside malt whisky, matured in a Ruby Port hogshead and bottled at 55.2% cask strength.

  The bottling forms part of Batch 4 in GlenAllachie's ongoing series of single cask releases, where whisky maker Billy Walker lets each cask show its own personality. Cask 2583 was filled on 20 November 2008 and left to mature for nearly 13 years before being bottled in July 2022. Over the years, the Ruby Port cask has given the whisky a deep reddish hue and a character of dark berries that stands clearly apart from the distillery's cask strength releases matured in bourbon or sherry wood.

  Only 313 bottles have been drawn from this single cask, and they are reserved for the Danish market. That makes this release an ideal chance to experience how a port wine cask can shape a Speyside malt whisky from the ground up.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Ripe raspberries and blackberries meet a sweetness of cane sugar and a hint of clove. Underneath lies a light earthy tone and a touch of dark chocolate that ties the berry-driven aromas together.

  Palate

  The palate offers juicy red berries, a whisper of liquorice and a warm spiciness that builds alongside the cask strength. Towards the middle comes a creamy sweetness reminiscent of dark cherry jam, backed by a light tannin from the cask.

  Finish

  Long and full-bodied, with a persistent tone of dark berries and herbal spice that slowly turns drier, leaving a light peppery warmth.

  Did you know?

  A hogshead is larger than a standard cask, typically holding around 190-200 litres, and is often built by reassembling used bourbon barrels into a new, larger construction. Once such a cask has held Ruby Port, it gains an extra dimension, giving the whisky more colour and fruit than a standard bourbon cask ever could.

  GlenAllachie 2008/2023 Virgin Oak 14 years old Batch 5 Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 55,5%

  Item no.: 22227865555-77

  Picture a cask that has never held anything but this one whisky - no prior life with bourbon or sherry, just virgin oak and fourteen quiet years of maturation. That is the essence of Batch 5, a distillate personally selected by Billy Walker and bottled in a strictly limited release for the Danish market.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 2008/2023 Virgin Oak 14 Year Old Batch 5 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured entirely in a virgin oak cask (Cask No. #473) and bottled at cask strength of 55.5%.

  The whisky was distilled in 2008 and left to rest until 2023, when Billy Walker - the distillery's owner and one of Speyside's most respected noses - selected this exact cask for the Batch 5 series. The series is known for pushing the boundaries of GlenAllachie's cask philosophy, and a virgin oak cask marks a deliberate departure from the bourbon and sherry casks the distillery is otherwise celebrated for.

  With only 263 bottles in total, released exclusively for the Danish market, this is a single cask experience unlikely to be repeated. Non-chill filtered and free of added colour, the whisky stands with its full, unadulterated character intact.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Vanilla and toasted coconut meet sweet caramel, a touch of clove and a fresh scent of freshly cut oak.

  Palate

  Creamy vanilla and brown sugar unfold alongside a gentle spiced edge of nutmeg, ripe apples and an underlying honeyed sweetness.

  Finish

  Long and dry-spiced, with notes of cedar, cinnamon and a lingering sweetness that speaks to how much character a single virgin cask can impart.

  Investment potential

  High. A single cask with only 263 bottles, released exclusively for Denmark, guarantees a rarity that rarely returns to shelves. The combination of Billy Walker's personal cask selection and an unusual virgin oak maturation makes this release a natural collector's item for enthusiasts chasing the unconventional.

  Did you know?

  Virgin oak casks are traditionally used for bourbon and rarely seen in Scotch whisky production. Billy Walker's decision to mature this whisky entirely in a virgin cask is a deliberate experiment within his renowned approach to cask management - and one of the clearest examples of how much character a single, unused oak cask can lend a distillate.

  GlenAllachie 2011/2023 Ruby Port Pipe 11 years old Batch 6 Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 58,2%

  Item no.: 059763-615-38

  A single cask, a ruby port pipe, left to shape the entire character on its own. Batch 6 is one of the rarer chapters in GlenAllachie's single cask series — only 797 bottles exist of this exact combination.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 2011/2023 Ruby Port Pipe 11 Year Old Batch 6 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky, fully matured in a single ruby port pipe, bottled at cask strength of 58.2%.

  The whisky was distilled on 25 October 2011 and left to rest in Cask No. 7445 until July 2023, when it was bottled. More than 11 years of maturation in a single port pipe has given the whisky a deep, fruit-driven character not found in the more blended batches.

  The cask forms part of Batch 6 in the single cask series, and with only 797 bottles drawn from this exact cask, it counts among the distillery's more limited releases.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Ripe red berries and a light wine-like sweetness from the port meet spiced oak. There's depth on the nose, almost like dark fruit cake, with a hint of spice in the background.

  Palate

  The palate offers the same red-berry sweetness, now with more weight and a touch of dried fruit. The port cask shines through with a tart-sweet balance, while the spices push back.

  Finish

  Long and fruit-driven, with a lingering sweetness from the port that slowly gives way to dry oak.

  Did you know?

  A "pipe" is a traditional port cask size, originally used to transport port from Portugal — considerably larger than a standard sherry cask, giving the whisky a different wood contact ratio.

  GlenAllachie 2011/2023 Tawny Port Pipe 11 years old Batch 5 Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 53,5%

  Item no.: 22227865555-74

  In Portugal's Douro Valley, port wine matures in large, flat casks known as pipes, where the wine slowly oxidises and develops its signature nutty sweetness. One of those very casks has now become home to an 11 year old GlenAllachie from the Batch 5 series - a single cask bottling brought directly to Denmark and selected personally by Billy Walker.

  Expert's Description

  GlenAllachie's 2011/2023 Tawny Port Pipe, Batch 5, is an 11 Year Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a single cask, matured in tawny port pipes and bottled at 53.5% ABV.

  The whisky was distilled in 2011 and bottled in 2023 from cask number 7872, a pipe - the traditional, elongated cask shape used across the port districts of northern Portugal. Tawny port ages oxidatively over many years in wood, where contact with oxygen slowly builds the nutty, caramelised character the style is known for. The same qualities show up in the whisky after years of interplay between spirit and residual cask sweetness.

  The bottling belongs to Batch 5, a series imported exclusively for the Danish market, where each cask has been personally selected by Billy Walker for age, cask type and flavour. That makes this single cask a rare chance to experience GlenAllachie in its most unfiltered form, without casks being blended together.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Toasted hazelnuts and caramelised brown sugar meet dried figs and a fine trace of tobacco leaf.

  Palate

  Rich and full-bodied with burnt sugar, walnuts and dark chocolate, carried by a warm, oxidative port sweetness.

  Finish

  Long and warm, closing with a last wave of nutty sweetness and a touch of spiced oak from the cask strength.

  Investment Potential

  With only 311 bottles drawn from a single cask and bottled at 53.5% cask strength, this Batch 5 release sits in the Medium investment potential category. The combination of single cask status, Billy Walker's personal cask selection and the exclusive Danish import deal makes it appealing to collectors who prioritise traceability and rarity over volume.

  Did You Know?

  A "pipe" is one of the oldest and largest cask formats in the port wine world, originally designed to be rolled and shipped from the Douro Valley to Porto without ever needing to be lifted. Because tawny port ages oxidatively over long periods rather than reductively in bottle, as with ruby port, the cask itself matters far more to the final flavour - and that same quality is exactly what GlenAllachie passes on to this whisky.

  GlenAllachie 21 years old Batch 5 Cask Strength Billy Walker Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 49,2%

  Item no.: 22221116666-41132

  Twenty-one years is a long time to wait for a result, but Batch 5 makes it clear why the patience pays off. The whisky comes straight from Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks at full cask strength, without a single drop of water added along the way.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 21 Year Old Batch 5 Cask Strength is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry puncheons and hogsheads, bottled at cask strength of 49.2% ABV.

  Batch 5 is the fifth chapter in GlenAllachie's ongoing series of 21 year old cask strength releases, where the distillery's cask custodian Billy Walker selects casks that have reached a rare balance of age and intensity. Puncheons and hogsheads of both Oloroso and PX sherry give the whisky its deep, dark character.

  The 21 years in cask have given the whisky time to absorb the full spectrum of sherry — from dry nuttiness to the sweet, jammy character PX casks are known for. The long maturation is balanced by the high strength, which keeps the flavours sharp and distinct.

  The whisky was bottled in 2023 as the fifth batch in the series, and as with earlier batches, the run is limited to whatever the selected casks could provide.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark chocolate and baking spices meet clementine peel and orchard sweetness, while treacle and candied ginger add depth.

  Palate

  Black cherries and raisin butter unfold alongside dark chocolate and spice, carried by the full sherry character of puncheons and hogsheads.

  Finish

  Long, warm and dry, with a final hint of treacle and toasted nuts.

  Did you know?

  Did you know Batch 5 combines two sherry cask sizes — puncheons and hogsheads — giving the whisky access to two different wood-to-liquid ratios, and therefore two nuances of the same sherry character in a single bottle?

  Glenallachie 30 Year Old Batch #2 Billy Walker Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 50,8%

  Item no.: 22211111-88874

  Dark chocolate, dried fruit and spiced oak come together in a 30 year old release, personally selected by Billy Walker. Three decades of patience, gathered in one glass.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 30 Year Old Batch #2 is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks as well as virgin oak and Rioja barriques, bottled at 50.8%.

  The whisky belongs to GlenAllachie's older range, where Billy Walker himself selected the casks for the composition. Batch #2 was bottled in 2022, with 2,000 bottles produced of this exact combination.

  Three different cask types have worked on the whisky across 30 years: the sherry casks provide classic depth and sweetness, while the Rioja barriques and virgin oak add a layer of spice and structure that only really unfolds after such a long maturation.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dark chocolate and dried fruit arrive first, followed by raisins and figs. Toasted nuts and spiced oak add depth, while a hint of tobacco hints at the many years of maturation.

  Palate

  Sherry sweetness sits centre stage, supported by dark berries and a coffee-like bitterness from espresso. Honey and orange peel break through before the spices take over towards the end.

  Finish

  Long and complex, with a lingering sherry sweetness that slowly gives way to dry oak and a final hint of spiced tobacco.

  Did you know?

  Rioja barriques are relatively rare in Scotch whisky production — they're used far more often for wine than whisky, making this cask combination something of a curiosity even within GlenAllachie's experimental range.

  GlenAllachie 30 years old Billy Walker Batch #4 Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 49,1%

  Item no.: 22212-7894

  Polished antique mahogany in the glass hints at what's coming: dark chocolate, gingerbread and raisin caramel in a 30 year old whisky that's become something of a masterwork in Billy Walker's hands.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 30 Year Old Billy Walker Batch #4 is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in a mix of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks, bottled at 49.1%.

  Batch 4 is composed of two oloroso sherry casks and three PX sherry casks — a precise balance chosen to highlight both the dark fruit sweetness and the spiced depth that 30 years of maturation brings. This release comes in a highly limited Danish bottling.

  The colour alone tells a story of decades of contact with the sherry casks: polished antique mahogany, deep and clear, with no added colouring.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dark chocolate and gingerbread meet raisin caramel and muscovado sugar. Plum syrup adds a preserved depth, while glazed almonds round off the nose with a lightly toasted sweetness.

  Palate

  Cocoa and heather honey lay the foundation, before chocolate-covered raisins and baking spices take over. Molasses adds weight, and a hint of Black Forest cake suggests both chocolate and berries at once.

  Finish

  Long and juicy, with grape must and ripe orchard fruit that slowly settles into a dry, spiced close.

  Did you know?

  The "polished antique mahogany" colour isn't added — it comes purely from 30 years of contact with the sherry casks, one of the clearest visual proofs of just how much time the whisky has actually been given.

  GlenAllachie 8 Years Old Dram Mor Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 53,8%

  Item no.: 22227865391-734

  Picture a bottling where only 194 siblings exist in the whole world. This 8 year old GlenAllachie comes straight from a single first-fill Oloroso sherry hogshead selected by Dràm Mòr, carrying all the dark, sticky sweetness a sherry cask can impart in such a short time.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 8 year old Dràm Mòr is an independently bottled Speyside single malt whisky, distilled in 2016 and bottled in 2024 from a first-fill Oloroso sherry hogshead, cask no. 210, at cask strength 53.8%.

  Dràm Mòr is a Scottish independent bottler that specializes in tracking down single casks with character rather than chasing a uniform house style. With this release, they have captured some of the best GlenAllachie's distillery can deliver: a spirit robust enough to stand up to an active sherry cask without being overwhelmed by it.

  Eight years might not sound like much in whisky terms, but in a first-fill cask the wood works fast. The result is a dram that tastes older than its age – dark, spicy and with a richness usually associated with far more mature releases.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Sweet dark fruits meet raisins and stewed plums, while lightly toasted honey notes sit beneath, adding depth without weighing things down.

  Palate

  Full-bodied and spicy from the first sip, with sticky ginger cake and a whole array of Christmas spices spreading across the palate.

  Finish

  Warm and long, with the spice and sherry sweetness lingering well after the last sip.

  Dràm Mòr takes its name from the Gaelic term for "big dram" – a fitting detail from a bottler that prizes casks with character over following a fixed template.

  GlenAllachie Billy Walker 50 th Anniversary Future Edition 4 years old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 60,2%

  Item no.: 22227865395-8970-008

  Some whiskies celebrate the past. This one celebrates the direction the distillery was heading. GlenAllachie Billy Walker 50th Anniversary Future Edition pays tribute to the distillery's very first peated distillation ever – a young, powerful dram pointing forward.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie Billy Walker 50th Anniversary Future Edition 4 year old is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky distilled from the distillery's first ever peated distillation, bottled in August 2022 at 60.2% ABV.

  The series was created to mark Billy Walker's 50 years in the whisky industry, with each release in the range looking in its own direction – some back at history, others forward. Future Edition belongs to the latter category: it points toward a new branch of GlenAllachie's production, which later led to the peated Meikle Tòir series.

  Putting a peated spirit from GlenAllachie into the world is no small thing – the distillery is far better known for its sherry-matured, unpeated single malts. This release is therefore a small piece of distillery history in its own right, young and direct in its expression.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Smoky and lively, with fresh peat mingling with sweet malt notes and a hint of citrus.

  Palate

  Powerful and direct, where the smoke drives forward alongside spicy pepper and an underlying sweetness from the malt.

  Finish

  Dry and smoky, with a lingering warmth from the high strength.

  Did You Know?

  Future Edition marks one of the most unusual moments in GlenAllachie's history: a distillery best known for its unpeated, sherry-matured single malts took on its very first peated distillation – a decision that later paved the way for the peated Meikle Tòir series.

  GlenAllachie Billy Walker 50 th Anniversary Past Edition 16 years old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 57,1%

  Item no.: 22221111115-88874

  Some releases look backward without turning nostalgic. GlenAllachie 16 Year Old Past Edition does exactly that — a look back at Billy Walker's early years in the whisky industry, poured at full sherry-driven strength.

  Expert's description

  GlenAllachie 16 Year Old Past Edition is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in sherry casks and bottled at 57.1% ABV.

  Past Edition is the first release in the same anniversary trilogy as the Present Edition, and where the latter looks ahead to new cask experimentation, this one turns to the past — to the classic sherry casks that have defined GlenAllachie's style since Billy Walker took over the distillery.

  The sherry casks the whisky has rested in lend it depth and weight, reinforced by its high strength. Bottling without dilution keeps the cask's character in its rawest form, and the result is a whisky that demands — and rewards — patience in the glass.

  The whisky was bottled in August 2022 in a run of 4,000 bottles worldwide, making it the more widely available, though still limited, chapter of the anniversary series.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark sherry, cane sugar, orange and dark chocolate meet dried figs, while the high strength adds a touch of spiced warmth.

  Palate

  Rich and full-bodied, with raisins, toasted almonds, dark marmalade and a peppery spice bite, carried by classic sherry tones.

  Finish

  Long, warm and spiced, with a dry, faintly tannic finish that lingers.

  GlenAllachie White Heather 21 years Blended Scotch Whisky 70 cl 48%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-19727808

  A blended whisky that has been given time to become more than the sum of its parts. White Heather 21 Year Old is built on casks that each matured separately for eighteen years before being brought together for a final marriage in PX and Oloroso puncheons alongside Appalachian Virgin Oak. Only 2,000 bottles have been released.

  Expert's description

  White Heather 21 Year Old is a Blended Scotch Whisky, married in Pedro Ximénez puncheons, Oloroso puncheons and Appalachian Virgin Oak casks, bottled at 48% ABV.

  The first eighteen years of the whisky's life were spent in used first-fill American barrels, sherry butts and second-fill barrels/hogsheads — a wide spread of cask types, each contributing its own character to the different whiskies in the blend. Only afterwards were they brought together and left to marry in three types of specialist casks, rounding off the story with one final layer of sweetness and spice.

  The White Heather brand traces back to Campbell Distillers in the 1950s and was relaunched in 2021 with GlenAllachie and Billy Walker at the helm, giving this 21 year old one foot in tradition and one in present-day craft.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  A layered aroma where mature sherry sweetness meets notes from American oak and a hint of the fresh, robust character of Appalachian Virgin Oak.

  Palate

  Round and full-bodied, with sherry spice up front and an underlying sweetness from the puncheons that ties the many cask types together.

  Finish

  Long, warm and lightly tannic, with a closing dryness from the Virgin Oak casks.

  Did you know?

  The White Heather brand originally dates back to Campbell Distillers in the 1950s and was only relaunched in 2021 — so this 21 year old carries the name forward from an era when blended whisky ruled the Scottish market.

  Glenburgie 23 Years The Chess Malt Collection D7 Single Island Malt Whisky 54%

  Item no.: 505956-498796-455-9

  Thirty-two bottles, one for every piece on a chessboard. That is how The Chess Malt Collection is built, and each bottling carries a square name. D7 is a pawn’s starting square, and behind that particular piece sits a refill hogshead of Glenburgie from February 1998.

  The expert's description

  Glenburgie 23 Year Old The Chess Malt Collection D7 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a refill hogshead, bottled at 54% in 238 bottles.

  The cask was filled in February 1998 and emptied in October 2021 after twenty-three years. A refill hogshead gives slowly, and over that length of time the result is a whisky where the distillery takes up more room than the wood. The bottling is non-chill filtered and carries natural colour.

  The series consists of thirty-two different bottlings from different distilleries, split evenly between black and white: two kings, two queens, four bishops, four knights, four rooks and sixteen pawns. It is a collecting project as much as a whisky range, and several of the squares are already hard to find.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Tropical fruit and old oak, with pineapple, mango and a trace of wax. There is a light smoky note under the fruit and a nuttiness that twenty-three years has laid in.

  Palate

  Full and oily. Tropical fruit and nuts first, then a dry, lightly smoky edge and a firm spiced middle. The 54% gives the whisky weight without hiding the age.

  Finish

  Long. Nuts, dry oak and a final wisp of smoke that lingers well after the fruit has gone.

  Did you know?

  In 1958 Glenburgie had two Lomond stills fitted, producing a heavier spirit under the name Glencraig. It was intended for blending, and very little has ever been bottled as single malt. The stills were removed again in 1981.

  Glendronach 10 year old Luke Skywalker Danish Whisky Retailers Single Speyside Malt Whisky 48%

  Item no.: 22227865458-125

  First came Darth Vader, then Yoda, and now Luke Skywalker. The names are the Danish whisky retailers' own joke, and the last one is a nod to Billy Walker — the man who lifted Glendronach out of obscurity, and whose surname fitted a little too well.

  The expert's description

  Glendronach 10 Year Old Luke Skywalker is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks and bottled at 48%.

  The bottling was made officially for professional Danish whisky retailers in an outturn of around 3,000 bottles, sold only on the Danish market. The whisky sits entirely in PX sherry casks, the sweetest and most concentrated sherry type, and it is neither chill filtered nor coloured.

  Glendronach is built on sherry. Since 1826 the distillery has matured its whisky in Spanish oak casks from the bodegas of Andalucía, so a ten year old entirely in PX is not a side step but a concentrated version of the house style.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dark sherry and raisin, with fig, dark chocolate and a layer of spice. The youth registers as a fresh berry note beneath the heavy fruit.

  Palate

  Full and sweet. Raisin, dates and dark chocolate, with a firm spiced middle. The 48% gives the whisky the weight a ten year old would otherwise lack against this much sherry.

  Finish

  Long. Dark fruit and cocoa drying slowly into a lightly bitter, nutty close.

  Did you know?

  James Allardice, who founded Glendronach in 1826, was only the second person in Scotland to obtain a legal distilling licence after the excise legislation of 1823. The distillery has therefore been there from the very beginning of the legal Scotch whisky industry.

  Glenfarclas 105 Old Version Cask Strength Single Highland Malt Whisky 60%

  Item no.: 22227865467-42

  Tall and slim instead of low and broad. The bottle shape alone says this 105 comes from another time — today’s release arrives in a short, squat bottle, while the older ones were filled into tall bottles.

  Please note: There is a white band around the bottle neck and light scratches on the top of the box.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas 105 Old Version is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at cask strength 60% in a 75 cl bottle.

  The bottling appears to date from the 1980s. The 75 cl was the European standard until 70 cl took over in the early 1990s, and the tall bottle shape was later replaced by the low, broad one Glenfarclas uses today. The whisky carries the white band around the neck.

  The contents follow the same idea as the current 105 — sherry-matured Glenfarclas at full strength with no age statement. But spirit from the 1970s and 80s has a reputation for being heavier and oilier than what is made today, and for many collectors that is exactly why the older bottles are interesting.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Complex and oaky, with apples, pears and a sweet, dark toffee. There is a dusty depth that older bottles often develop.

  Palate

  Dry and assertive. It develops quickly to reveal a rich spiciness combined with a hint of oak and sherried fruit. At 60% there is a lot at once, but it is warming rather than sharp.

  Finish

  Amazingly smooth for the strength. Warming and with a lingering smokiness, yet gathered and round.

  Flavour profile

  Investment potential

  Medium. Both the 75 cl format and the tall bottle left Glenfarclas during the 1990s, and a 105 from the 1980s cannot be made again. Older cask strength bottlings from the distillery are collected precisely because they represent a period when the category was still new.

  Did you know?

  Glenfarclas runs six pot stills, the largest in Speyside, and they are fired directly with gas rather than heated by steam. It is an approach almost every other distillery has abandoned, and it produces a heavier spirit.

  Glenfarclas 185th Anniversary Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 46%

  Item no.: 22227865467-6-20

  Six decades in one bottle. When Glenfarclas came to mark 185 years, the family went into the warehouses and brought out casks from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s — and married them into a single whisky.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas 185th Anniversary is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky composed from casks spanning six decades and bottled at 46%.

  Around two thirds of the casks are Spanish sherry oak, the rest other cask types from the distillery own warehouses. The whisky carries no age statement, because one would have to follow the youngest cask in the marriage and would say very little about what is actually in the bottle. The outturn is 6,000 bottles.

  Glenfarclas was founded in May 1836, and the anniversary release was bottled in May 2021 — exactly 185 years later. It is the kind of marker a family-owned distillery can make precisely because there are still old casks left in its own warehouses to draw on.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Deep sherry and dried fruit, with raisin, fig and a dark syrup note. The oldest casks show up as a dusty, almost waxy depth behind.

  Palate

  Full and layered. Dark fruit and nuts from the old casks meet a fresher fruitiness from the younger ones, and the spice builds slowly through the palate. The 46% keeps the many layers apart.

  Finish

  Very long. Dried fruit, nuts and a dry oak note that keeps shifting.

  Did you know?

  Glenfarclas was founded in May 1836, and the 185th anniversary was marked by bottling in May 2021 — to the month, 185 years later. It is a detail that requires having casks from every decade in between.

  Glenfarclas 2003 The Private Reserve Small Batch Single Speyside Malt Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 2222786-7745

  Five casks, hand-picked by John L.S. Grant himself for a single importer in Paris. That is how a small batch comes about when the distillery knows the recipient and can afford to choose by taste rather than by volume.

  Please note: The wooden case shows signs of wear, and there is a yellow band on the bottle.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas 2003 The Private Reserve Small Batch is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky from five sherry casks, bottled at 46%.

  The whisky was distilled in 2003 and bottled in 2011 after eight years in sherry casks number 9, 10, 11, 1875 and 1876. Eight years is young for Glenfarclas, but the marriage of five casks gives enough breadth for the whisky to stand up, and the 46% keeps the texture oily.

  The selection was made by John L.S. Grant for La Maison du Whisky in Paris. It is an approach close to the Family Casks idea — individual casks chosen by the family itself — but here gathered into a small batch rather than bottled separately.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Ripe pears, quince and raisins, with light citrus and a discreet herbal freshness. The sherry casks contribute warm, sweet tones.

  Palate

  Rounded and full with a sweet, fruity core. Ripe pears and light citrus meet the soft sweetness of the malt, and a subtle spiced tone from the cask maturation gives depth. The mouthfeel is soft and oily.

  Finish

  Medium to long with lasting notes of fruit, malt and a lightly spiced undertone.

  Glenfarclas 25 year old Single Highland Malt Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 22227865467-17

  Twenty-five years is where the coffee arrives. Not as an addition, but as something that emerges on its own once sherry cask and time have worked together long enough — and at Glenfarclas it comes alongside orange marmalade and sweet smoke.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas 25 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in sherry casks and bottled at 43%.

  The 43% may look low for a twenty-five year old, but it is a deliberate choice. After that many years in sherry casks the whisky is already concentrated, and a higher strength would make it hard rather than elegant. The balance between the sherry and the alcohol is the whole point of this bottling.

  Glenfarclas can offer a continuous ladder from ten to forty years, which few family-owned distilleries can. It is because several generations have held back from selling the old casks off — something that requires being able to do without the income in the short term.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Delicate sweet smoke, orange marmalade and honey, with freshly ground coffee, sherry and nuts over a base of aged wood.

  Palate

  Robust and full with great body. Sweet smoke and nuts, with a fine balance between the sherry casks and the alcohol. Dark chocolate settles at the back of the mouth.

  Finish

  Intense and long. Dry, malty, nutty and lightly smoky, with a dark chocolate note that lingers well afterwards.

  Glenfarclas can offer an unbroken age ladder from ten to forty years because the family has let the old casks stand over generations. It is a luxury few distilleries have, and it cannot be built up in a short time.

  Glenfarclas 50 year old 50th Anniversary Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 50%

  Item no.: 505956-55555896

  The cask was filled by George Grant. It was emptied for his son John, who had spent fifty years in the trade by the time the bottle appeared. That is the kind of timeline only a family-owned distillery can deliver.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas 50 Year Old 50th Anniversary is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in sherry casks and bottled at 50% in 836 bottles.

  The bottling marks chairman John Grant’s fifty years in the whisky industry. The whisky was laid down by his father, George Grant, and was allowed to sit for half a century before bottling. The 50% is high for a whisky of this age and says something about how slowly the casks work in the Glenfarclas warehouses.

  Fifty years in sherry casks is rare, but it is not unusual at Glenfarclas. The family has held back from selling its oldest casks over generations, and precisely for that reason the distillery can make a bottling like this without having to buy casks in from outside.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Deep and concentrated. Dried fruit, dark syrup and old leather, with a dusty library note only decades in wood can create.

  Palate

  Full and dense. Raisin, walnut and dark chocolate over a base of aged oak, with a spiced depth that keeps unfolding. The 50% carries the whisky without being sharp.

  Finish

  Very long. Dried fruit, tobacco and oak drying slowly and lingering for many minutes.

  Glenfarclas Millenium 1999 #7512, J & G Grant Highland Single Malt Whisky 50%

  Item no.: 505956-498796-454-6

  Distilled on 31 December 1999. That is the last day of the millennium, and the cask was filled while the rest of the world was getting ready for fireworks. Twenty-two years later it yielded 203 bottles — for Denmark only.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas Millennium Single Cask 1999 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a single sherry cask, bottled at 50%.

  The cask was filled on 31 December 1999 and emptied on 27 June 2022 after twenty-two years. Cask number 7512 gave 203 bottles, and the release forms part of The Family Casks — the Glenfarclas series of individual casks selected and bottled by the family without blending.

  The Millennium casks hold a particular status, because the date is one of the few in whisky where you know exactly what was happening that day. This one was selected for the Danish market and has never been sold anywhere else.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Deep sherry with raisin and dried fig, over a base of aged oak. There is a waxy depth that twenty-two years in a single cask has created.

  Palate

  Full and concentrated. Dark fruit, walnut and a spiced middle, with a firm oak note keeping the sweetness in check. The 50% gives the whisky structure without being hard.

  Finish

  Long and dry. Nuts, dark fruit and oak ebbing away slowly with a spiced warmth.

  Glenfarclas Millennium Cask 2000/2022 Cask #24 Highland Single Malt Whisky 56,1%

  Item no.: 505956-498796-454-7

  Twenty-four hours after the other Millennium cask. This one was filled on 1 January 2000 — the first day of the new millennium — and it is hard to find a whisky with a more precise birthday.

  The expert's description

  Glenfarclas Millennium Single Cask 2000 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a single sherry butt, bottled at cask strength 56.1%.

  The cask was filled on 1 January 2000 and emptied on 28 June 2022 after twenty-one years. Sherry butt number 24 gave 569 bottles, which is a lot for a single cask — a butt holds around 500 litres where a hogshead takes only half that. The 56.1% is natural cask strength.

  The bottling forms part of The Family Casks and was selected specially for the Danish market. Together with the Millennium cask from the day before, the two make a pair where the difference between casks filled twenty-four hours apart can be tasted side by side.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Powerful sherry with raisin, dates and dark syrup. The cask strength pushes the fruit forward, and there is a warm spice note beneath it all.

  Palate

  Dense and sweet. Dark fruit, walnut and chocolate, with a firm spiced middle. The 56.1% gives the whisky an intensity its gentler Millennium sibling does not have.

  Finish

  Very long. Dark fruit, nuts and a dry oak close with lasting warmth.

  Glenfiddich 12 years old Caoran Reserve Pure Single Malt Scotch Whisky 100 cl 40%

  Item no.: 505956-759824-55

  Caoran means 'glowing ember' in Gaelic — a name that hints at more fire than you would normally associate with a Glenfiddich.

  Expert description

The result is a 12 Years Old edition with a light smoky dimension not found in the distillery's regular core range.
