Glenallachie 2012 Cask #1029 PX Hogshead

The nose opens with dried berries, mocha, cinnamon butter, heather honey, orange zest, and a whisper of pineapple. On the palate, expect bold notes of raisins, crystallized ginger, muscovado sugar, grilled honeycomb, toffee, and brandied orchard fruits. The finish carries lingering richness, with mocha and dried fruit tones holding steady. Best enjoyed neat in a tulip or Glencairn glass to appreciate how the sherry notes and malt interplay. A splash of water can soften the high strength and let the fruit and spice elements breathe.
