From the heart of Speyside, GlenAllachie Single Malt Scotch Whisky stands as a reflection of meticulous craftsmanship and the beauty of the Scottish highlands. With a rich palate that dances between honeyed sweetness, dried fruits, and hints of spice, GlenAllachie captures the essence of its unique terroir. The distillery's dedication to hand-selected casks and traditional methods ensures a whisky that is both vibrant and deeply complex. Every glass of GlenAllachie is an ode to Scotland's natural bounty and a distilling legacy that spans decades.
The Sinteis Series takes its name from the Scottish Gaelic word for “synthesis,” representing GlenAllachie’s innovative approach to cask maturation. Part 2 of the series brings together two contrasting yet complementary styles: spirit matured in classic Oloroso sherry casks and whisky from rare Scottish virgin oak barrels.
This dual-cask combination delivers a fusion of richness and vibrancy. The Oloroso casks contribute depth, sherried sweetness and spice, while the Scottish virgin oak imparts bold structure, nutty character and local provenance. Bottled at cask strength with natural colour and non-chill filtration, the result is a whisky rooted in tradition yet pushing the boundaries of flavour.

Batch 3 of the Virgin Oak Series unveils a mahogany-hued malt enriched with spicy, treacly flavors, a result of its maturation in hogsheads crafted from Spanish Oak (Quercus Robur). This wood originates from the regions of Galicia and Asturias, specifically harvested in the cool, humid climate of the Cantabrian Mountains.
The oak was meticulously air-dried for approximately 18 months, followed by toasting and charring to a medium level. This process allowed our complex spirit to intricately interact with the oak, extracting its unique cask character. The secondary aging in these virgin casks further deepened the whisky's mahogany color and contributed to a palate teeming with dried fruits, maraschino cherries, and subtle hints of stem ginger.
This exquisite whisky is bottled at 48% alcohol by volume, with its natural color preserved, and it remains non-chill filtered, adhering to the commitment to authenticity.

Before being filled with whisky, the wood underwent an extensive 36-month air-drying period, followed by a medium-level toasting and charring process. Despite the inherent difficulties, this coveted oak variety imparts luxurious notes of blonde chocolate, accompanied by hints of zesty orange and velvety toffee, resulting in a truly distinctive and indulgent drinking experience.

In Batch 3 of their Virgin Oak Series, The GlenAllachie proudly introduces an innovative single malt that embarked on a distinctive secondary aging journey in Hungarian oak.

This region's unique characteristics, including rocky volcanic soil, a colder climate, and higher altitude, result in slow-growing trees with tight-grained oak—an ideal quality for aging spirits.
Driven by a desire to explore the potential of this rare oak, the barrels underwent a carefully controlled toasting and charring process before being filled with their intricate spirit. As one of the world's pioneering single malts finished in Hungarian virgin oak (Quercus Petraea), this whisky promises an aromatic, well-balanced, and exquisitely unique profile, marked by its silky smooth richness.
