What is the difference between the GlenAllachie 15 Years Old 2024 New Packaging and the previous edition?

The 2024 new edition of GlenAllachie 15 Years Old features a brand new bottle shape and label design, giving it a more modern and minimalist look. However, the liquid itself remains the same: meticulously selected Oloroso and PX Sherry cask maturation overseen by Billy Walker, ensuring the flavor is consistently rich and balanced.

Does this whisky contain artificial coloring?

No. GlenAllachie 15 Years Old insists on Natural Colour. Its deep amber hue comes entirely from the natural extraction achieved during long-term maturation in high-quality sherry casks. It is also Non-Chill Filtered.

How should I best enjoy the GlenAllachie 15 Years Old?

It is recommended to drink it neat using a professional whisky nosing glass to appreciate the cinnamon and chocolate aromas brought by its 46% ABV. If you want to increase aroma release, add one or two drops of pure water; this will unlock more hidden sweet orange peel and nectar notes.

Why is GlenAllachie 15 Years Old often called a 'Sherry Cask Benchmark'?

This is due to Billy Walker's exceptional cask management, perfectly blending the dried fruit spice of Oloroso casks with the sweet syrup characteristics of PX casks. Compared to single malts in the same price range, its viscosity and complexity are notably superior.

Read More About the Product Story

GlenAllachie Distillery, located in the heart of Speyside, Scotland, long served as a base spirit source for blended whiskies since its founding in 1967. However, everything changed dramatically in 2017 when whisky legend Billy Walker, with over 50 years of experience, led the acquisition of the distillery. Billy Walker is known for his uncompromising dedication to 'cask management.' The first thing he did after taking over was drastically reduce annual production from four million liters to 500,000 liters and extend fermentation time up to 160 hours, aiming to extract a purer, fruitier spirit.

This 15 Years Old expression is a hallmark of Billy Walker's reform. He personally checks thousands of casks in the warehouse annually, ensuring that only liquid at its peak condition is bottled. The 15 Years Old primarily uses Oloroso Sherry casks (imparting nutty and spicy notes) and Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks (delivering sweet raisin and treacle sensations). Under Billy's leadership, GlenAllachie quickly moved from background player to the spotlight, earning multiple recognitions at the World Whisky Awards (WWA). The 2024 new packaging design reflects the distillery's modern era, yet the liquid inside maintains that breathtaking complexity and richness, allowing both first-time tasters and repeat customers to feel Billy Walker's dedication to the ultimate balance of flavor.
