  • Glenallachie 2006 - 17 Year Old - Oloroso Sherry - The Whisky World Exclusive
    GlenAllachie distilled this beautiful single malt back on 18th September 2006. It spent the first five years of its life in bourbon, before being filled into a single oloroso sherry puncheon for a further 12 years. Bottled exclusively for The Whisky World under the watchful eye of Master Distiller Billy Walker, this richly coloured whisky is oozing with espresso, plum, black cherry and chocolate notes. This cask strength dram is intense, flavourful and the perfect treat for any lover of heavily sherried single malt.

    These Glenallachie single casks, which I think I have tried at least 15 of, have all been absolute bangers! It's always a good day when you try these types of whiskies. Like you said, not bottle maybe but very happy to have samples of. Cheers Vin!

      I've never tried a bad one either! Though I've tried maybe 3 or 4 😅

    These days I am turning to Bourbon casks! I have had too many sweet scotch whiskies lately. Complex, peated, rich brine, and deeply complex Speysides like a Craigellachie 17 or 21 are faves!!

    What a treat this must have been for you. Excellent review and I almost felt like I got to experience this special dram. Thanks, Vin.

      A proper treat! I've even saved a bit to try again later 😅

    I have had this excellent Glen Allachie several times! We still have a fresh bottle on our bar! Expensive but worth it. I am not a sweet scotch fan but I like this one! Terrific thoughts! Cheers!

    Pricey but apart from that, exactly what I would like on my shelf. I've never had or tried a GlenAllachie myself, but I'm very keen. I'm sure this would sell out in a very short time were it to be introduced to my country Norway.

    • @NoNonsenseWhisky

      It's definitely worth it to try a GlenAllachie if you ever get the chance

    • @torbjornkarlsen
      @torbjornkarlsen 2 місяці тому

      For sure, it's on my list! There's five OBs and two IBs available at the moment, I'm just not sure they're good value as it stands.

    I feel like the Glenallachie name costs an extra premium these days, even for liquid distilled back when quality was not a concern. That’s not saying it’s bad whisky, I’m never seen The Whisky World produce a bad exclusive, but if this was an Aultmore 17 with the same stats, and taste, it would likely be much cheaper.
    Curious if they were/are willing to send you the Edradour exclusive, that one is a bit more reasonable!

    • @NoNonsenseWhisky
      @NoNonsenseWhisky  2 місяці тому +1

      I can certainly ask if they'd be willing to send me some!

    Got a few single cask expressions but all younger than this 17 year old (10-14 yrs) and bagged for sub £100 at the time. Still a tad pricey even for cask strength and 17 years so not a value proposition for me sadly unless TWW want to send me a sample 😅

    I'm sorry, but I have to ask: when did Black Forest gâteau (Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte) named after the Black Forest (Schwarzwald) in Germany change its name to Dark Forest gâteau... and why? Is this some form of trendy 'woke' overcompensation for terminology that was never racist to begin with? In which case, it makes me furious! So much so that the rest of the review didn't really register...

    • @NoNonsenseWhisky
      @NoNonsenseWhisky  2 місяці тому +1

      To be honest, I think that's just me making a mistake rather than it being a thing. I did the tasting notes on the fly just said what came to mind rather than checking the name of it
