GlanAllachie er kommet med 2 nye aftapninger i Wood Collection serien.

Der er tale om en 12 års Sauternes Wine Cask Finish og en 10 års Ruby Port Cask Finish.
Sauternes er frigivet til UK og Ruby Port til Europa.

Begge har ligget på bourbon barrels inden det er flyttet over på andre fadtyper.

The 12-year-old UK exclusive enjoyed a secondary ageing period in hogsheads that previously hosted Sauternes: a white dessert wine from the famous French region of Bordeaux. The resulting whisky delivers “elegant layers of toffee sauce, vanilla ice cream, coconut shavings and peach torte.”

For Europe, the 10-year-old single malt spent additional time in hogshead casks that formerly held vibrant Ruby Port from Portugal’s celebrated Douro Valley. The rich wood has “bestowed a rose gold hue and flavours of forest fruits, ginger biscuits, honeycomb and mocha.”The GlenAllachie 12-year-old Sauternes Wine Cask Finish, UK Exclusive =11.0pt– 48% ABV
