    Description

    This single malt offers strong aromas of sweet spices and toasted nuts that join the peat smoke. It is aged in premium Chinquapin virgin oak barrels originating from the Northern Ozark region of Missouri, USA. The mainland St. Fergus peat that was utilised to kiln the grain gives the 35 PPM whisky a sweeter kind of smoke character. The whisky has a rich flavour after a drawn-out 160-hour fermentation process that holds up well to maturation in virgin wood casks.

    Tasting Note by Meikle Toir:
    Nose: Aromas of smouldering oak embers, burnt liquorice and honeycomb, with wild heather, ginger, butterscotch and orange peel.
    Palate: Dark chocolate, creme brulee and toasted almonds, leading to cinnamon, brittle toffee, aniseed and lingering campfire smoke.

    Very nice

    This is now on sale at JPHA for £42.95, worth every penny as far as I'm concerned. Despite being only 5 years old, this has the mouth feel of a 10-12 year old to me, it has become a firm favourite. I wasn't surprised when I read that it comes from the GlenAllachie distillery, one of the best Speyside makers.

    I picked up three of this range (all but the Turbo). Very impressed given only five years in oak (bravo GlenAllachie and Billy Walker for doing age statements on young whiskies, more of this please). All three are good. Serge Valentin gave this one 89 points. I am not quite there but it's good to try something different and the Chinquapin cask does offer something. As always great service from JPHA. Excellent offers, always a good range with a few £ off, and orders well packaged and delivered within 48 hours. Keep up the good work.
