The GlenAllachie 17 Year Masters of Wood (Mizunara & Oloroso)
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 50% ABV (100 Proof) | 750 mL
Process & Profile
This 17-year expression inaugurates GlenAllachie’s Masters of Wood series. Initially aged in American ex-bourbon barrels, it’s then finished in rare Japanese Mizunara oak and Oloroso sherry casks.
