GLENALLACHIE 30 Year Old (Batch 3) Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl 48.9%

Crafted from an exceptional selection of the most precious casks in the GlenAllachie warehouses, the 30 Year Old Batch 3 represents the pinnacle of Billy Walker’s wood-management mastery. This ultra-limited release brings together three decades of patient maturation in a combination of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks, alongside a small number of carefully chosen American virgin oak barrels. Bottled at natural cask strength, 48.9%, and presented with natural colour and without chill-filtration, this luxurious expression showcases unparalleled richness, complexity and depth — a true celebration of GlenAllachie Distillery’s bold, flavour-led style.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: An exquisite fusion of dark chocolate, rich espresso and treacle, lifted by aromas of dried figs, raisins and Christmas cake. Layers of sweet spice, toasted oak and honeyed malt develop over time, revealing outstanding maturity and depth.

Palate: Silky, opulent and intensely flavourful. Waves of dark fruits, mocha, molasses and sweet sherry richness unfold, balanced by roasted nuts, orange peel and hints of cinnamon and clove. The influence of long-aged sherry casks shines through with extraordinary structure and warmth.

Finish: Long, warming and profoundly complex. Notes of cocoa, dried fruits, nutmeg and polished oak linger gracefully, supported by gentle spice and rich, honeyed malt. A lingering, luxurious finish worthy of its rare age.
