The GlenAllachie - Future Edition - Billy Walker 50th Anniversary Edition - 4 years - 60.2%
The GlenAllachie is located in Aberlour, in the Speyside region of Scotland . It was built in 1967 and the distillery began its first production with a production capacity of nearly three million liters of alcohol in February 1968. In 1985 the distillery was put on hold. Campbell Distillers (later part of Pernod Ricard) acquired the GlenAllachie distillery and production resumed on 24 April; it was the start of 29 years of uninterrupted production. The distillery was then named The Home of Clan Campbell Whisky. In 2005, Chivas Brothers launched a GlenAllachie Single Malt whiskey as part of the Cask Edition series. Since 2017, Billy Walker, Trisha Savage and Graham Stevenson have come together to acquire the GlenAllachie Distillery and form The GlenAllachie Distillers Company Limited, bringing with them over 100 years of industry knowledge and expertise.
The GlenAllachie Billy Walker 50th Anniversary Future Edition is part of “The Past, Present & Future Series” range. This range pays homage to the 50 years that Billy Walker has spent in the Scotch whiskey industry. Each episode of the trilogy has been carefully selected to reflect a key milestone in the master blender's career.
For this edition, the barley was roasted at 80 ppm with continental peat from Saint-Fergus. This 4-year -old whiskey was aged in ex-rye and Bourbon whiskey casks, as well as in virgin oak casks.
