Glenallachie 10 Year Old 2007 Adelphi Single Sherry Cask #900828 Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (2017) 70cl

1 of 592 bottles produced from a single sherry butt

An amazing tasting Speyside whisky bottled at one of the highest ABVs seen. This means you need less whisky and some water (or ice after melting) to have a lot more than you would have had with a 40% ABV bottle.

The Speyside whiskey distillery Glenallachie distilled this single malt in 2007. After ten years of storage in sherry casks, the whiskey was brought onto the market as a limited edition bottling by the independent bottler Adelphi. The whiskey was bottled at cask strength.

1825 saw the official opening of the Adelphi distillery in the Gorbals, Glasgow, but after changing hands a smattering of times throughout the mid to late 1800’s, it finally ended up in the hands of DLC in 1902. Sadly, production at the distillery ceased shortly afterwards.

Fast forward to 1993, and we see Jamie Walker, the great-grandson of one of the distillery’s founders reviving the Adelphi name as an independent bottler, ultimately selling the company to Keith Falconer and Donald Houston in 2004, who went on to found Ardnamurchan distillery.

Whiskies bottled by Adelphi are selected by a nosing team chaired by whisky critic Charles MacLean, and their outturns have received numerous accolades including several Malt Maniacs Awards. Each bottling is limited to between 100 and 700 bottles due to the size of the casks used.
