Glenallachie 1989 SampleBot.2018 Cask#2587

3cl / 45.4%

Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Perfect Measure

A sample of one of the two 1989-vintage whiskies from the Glenallachie 50th anniversary collection. Veteran whisky entrepreneur Billy Walker put together the range as the first releases after he bought the distillery. Unlike its twin, this was matured in a hogshead – we assume a sherry one – and has a more elegant character. Sultanas rather than full on raisin and gentle spice. Check out our Cask #986 sample if you want to try both in the pair.

3cl / 46%

Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Paying homage to the Alt-na-Frith burn, from which the distillery derives its water, this single malt is weighty and oily, with notes of blood orange marmalade, marzipan and rich toffee. It is an equal marriage of whisky matured in sherry butts and that matured in second-fill ex-bourbon barrels.

Tomatin Metal Sample

3cl / 46%

Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Perfect Measure

A Perfect Measure sample of the fourth bottling in Tomatin's limited edition Five Virtues series. Metal, which pays homage to Tomatin's 12 copper stills, is a sweet, soft and creamy single malt that has been entirely aged in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels. Notes include milk chocolate, marshmallows, citrus, ice-cream and sweet spices. The Five Virtues series is inspired by elements from nature. Each of the five bottlings, all in editions of 6,000 bottles, focuses on different cask maturations.
