The GlenAllachie 11 Year Old Palo Cortado Sherry Cask Finish

Glenallachie 11 Year Old Palo Cortado Sherry Cask Finish is a single malt Scotch whisky crafted by Master Distiller Billy Walker at the GlenAllachie Distillery in Speyside. Initially matured in premium American oak ex-bourbon barrels, the spirit underwent a secondary maturation for over two years in rare Palo Cortado sherry puncheons sourced from Spain. This unique finishing process imparts a complex balance of rich dried fruits, nutty warmth, and delicate oak spices onto GlenAllachie’s signature honeyed spirit.
