Almost five years since we formed the GlenAllachie Distillers Company, bringing the distillery back into private ownership, we released the very special expression as an extension of our core range. Our Master Distiller, Billy Walker, has worked tirelessly on perfecting this expression since day one; evaluating casks and refining recipes to create something special. We’re proud to present the jewel in our crown; the GlenAllachie 15 years old.
The GlenAllachie 15 Year Old is bottled at 46%, non chill filtered and natural colour.

The text below was taken from the Official Product page in June 2020, it has since been updated as above:
It’s now almost two years since we formed the GlenAllachie Distillers Company, bringing the distillery back into private ownership. In that time, we have opened a Visitor’s Centre, added two warehouses, grown from seven to 21 employees and our GlenAllachie and MacNair’s whiskies are now recognised as outstanding malts, receiving numerous medals and awards across both ranges.
It’s now time for us to expand the GlenAllachie core range and showcase more of what our whisky has to offer. Our Master Distiller, Billy Walker, has been working tirelessly on this new expression since day one; evaluating casks and refining recipes to create something special. We’re proud to present the jewel in our crown; the GlenAllachie 15 years old.
