Winemaking notes
Guided by revered Master Distiller, Billy Walker, our team is on a ‘Meikle Tòir‘ (meaning ‘big pursuit’).
The goal: to carefully craft and cask-perfect a peerless peated single malt at our Speyside home, The
GlenAllachie Distillery.
Viticultural notes
Taking ‘the heart of the heart’ of our distillate – the spirit cut which contains the highest phenol
content – ‘The Turbo’ entails an amplified smoky identity. Deploying mainland peat and a lengthy
fermentation period, the whisky boasts full-bodied character. The 2024 Release is a combination of
five American virgin oak casks and four Oloroso hogsheads. The result is a multifaceted whisky with a
powerful punch of peat, hitting a hefty 70 PPM.
Tasting notes
Smoked blood orange, cinnamon spice and
manuka honey, with bursts of rich dark chocolate
and roasted hazelnuts.
TASTE: Worn leather, baking spices and cigar box,
followed by honey, hazelnuts and dried red berries,
with burnt orange peel and salted caramel.
