Guided by revered Master Distiller, Billy Walker, the Glenallachie team is on a ‘Meikle Tòir‘ (meaning ‘big pursuit’). The goal: to carefully craft and cask-perfect a peerless peated single malt at their Speyside home, The GlenAllachie Distillery.

‘The Original’ is our classic single malt that truly champions our peated pursuit. Made with mainland

peat from St. Fergus, the flavour contribution is sweeter than that anticipated of coastal peat. With an extended fermentation time of 160 hours, nearly triple the industry average, the whisky boasts flavour- rich, complex character. Aged in a combination of first-fill Bourbon barrels, American virgin oak casks and Rye barrels, the spirit clocks in at 35 PPM.

Late Delivery

Ordered for a occasion. Arrived late and awaiting next occasion.

Meikle Tòir The Original

This is an outstanding whisky. Young & vibrant, yet well-balanced with layers of complexity that is impressive for such a young whisky. Perfect balance of sweet peat smoke and oaky vanilla custard creams. So good I bought a 2nd bottle after only a few weeks of tasting it.
Very good value too at around £40-£45.
Will shortly be doing a straight comparison between this, Port Charlotte 10yo, Ledaig 10yo, and Stauning Smoke. Can't wait.....
