For Batch Three of The GlenAllachie Virgin Oak Series, we first matured our whisky in American Oak (Quercus Alba) ex-Bourbon Barrels. To add a delicate and distinctive twist, the whisky then underwent additional maturation for approximately 18 months in specially selected virgin Oak casks from the mountains of northeast Hungary in the Zemplén forest.
Keen to experiment with this rare Oak, the barrels were toasted and charred to a medium level before hosting our complex spirit. One of the world’s first Single Malts finished in Hungarian Virgin Oak (Quercus Petraea), expect an aromatic, well-balanced, and wonderfully unique whisky delivering silky smooth richness.
