About this bottle
Celebrating whisky legend Billy Walker's 50 years in the industry, The GlenAllachie have launched this first bottling of their Anniversary Trilogy.
Billy is renowned for his unrivalled cask management expertise. Throughout his 50-year spell in the industry, he has acquired an extensive understanding of whisky maturation; selecting the finest casks, continually evaluating the ageing spirit, re-racking into new wood to elevate the flavour experience, and determining the perfect time for bottling.
This 100% sherry matured malt represents Billy’s past, when he made a name for himself by releasing rich and indulgent heavily sherried expressions. This experience means he is perfectly placed to develop an exceptional celebratory single malt from nine personally selected 2005 vintage Spanish sherry butts.

About the distillery
The GlenAllachie distillery was built in 1967 by Mackinlay McPherson. It was bought and mothballed by Invergordon Distillers in 1985. They sold it to Campbell Distillers in 1989, who restarted the distillery.
