Description
We could not be prouder to announce this Allt a Bhaine 1996 Rare Find, exclusive to The Whisky Shop. Allt A Bhaine is a distillery that was built to supply malt whisky to the Chivas Regal blend. In 1989, it was extensively expanded. This bottle is free from chill filtration and has a natural cask-imparted colour.
Distilled in 1996 and bottled in 2020, this 24 year old whisky is bursting with character. One of only 85 bottles, all sourced from a single-cask, Allt a Bhaine made its name as a distillery that sought to blend the fruity characteristics of Speyside whiskies with a hit of peatiness that you would typically find in the Islay distilleries. It has aromas of sweet citrus, vanilla, white chocolate, and fragrant spices. The palate is one of dark fruits, melon, coconut and vanilla. The finish balances delicate fruit flavours with exotic spices, with hints of malty, disgestive biscuits all combining to provide a luxurious finish. Take a dive into Speyside history.
