Glenallachie 1989 Single Cask #986 50cl / 50th Anniversary

Glenallachie distillery was built by Mackinlays in 1967 to meet the demands of its blends following an upturn in sales in the US. In its short history it has passed through the hands of Invergordon Distillers and Pernod-Ricard. During this period the focus was always on the provision of blends, with over 20 years between the first Mackinlay’s distillery bottlings of its single malt and the next official release from Chivas Brothers in 2005. Now in the hands of Billy Walker, Glenallachie is finally being pushed as an increasingly popular single malt brand since 2017.

This bottle is one of the 50th Anniversary single cask releases, the fist batch of bottlings produced when Billy Walker took over.

Distilled on the 19th of May 1989 and aged in single cask #986, this was bottled in February 2018.
