Meikle Tòir The Sherry 5 Year Old 48% Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl

Default Title InStock

"The Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry puncheons work in perfect harmony to offer chocolate, dark fruit and coffee characteristics. When combined with the sweet smokiness of the mainland peat, the flavours dance together beautifully, creating a wonderful equilibrium of sweet and peat." - Billy Walker, Master Distiller

Made using mainland peat from St. Fergus, the sweet, phenolic content of the whisky amounts to 35 PPM. A lengthy fermentation period of 160 hours results in a fruit-forward spirit that lends itself perfectly to ageing in the finest Sherry oak.

Casks: American ex-Bourbon barrels, followed by Pedro Ximénez & Oloroso Sherry puncheons.

The GlenAllachie Distillery

Nestled at the foot of Ben Rinnes lies one of the best-kept secrets in Speyside: The GlenAllachie Distillery. 

Having been crowned winners of the Scottish Distillery of the Year award at the inaugural Scottish Whisky Awards 2019, the small team at GlenAllachie use their drive, passion and desire to create whiskies to be proud of.

The Making of Meikle Tòir

Meikle Tòir (mee-khul tor), meaning Big Pursuit, is The GlenAllachie Distillery’s journey into peated whisky.

The journey began back in 2018, one year after Master Distiller, Billy Walker, took over The GlenAllachie Distillery. From the start he knew he wanted to venture into peated whisky, and so began the process of producing smoky spirit for the first time in the distillery’s history.
