Tasting note by your BTC host and whisky specialist Nils van Rijn

The Duchess holds the iron throne

Our good Friend Mark Watt has selected this 24 years old Duchess release. For those unfamiliar with the legendary Mark Watt: Cadenhead, Duncan Taylor, Electric Coo series with David stirk, Campbeltown Whisky Company and a few more. Mark earned his stripes in the whisky industry. This GlenAllachie 24 Years old is a single cask released by the Duchess, The Best of Wines owned independent fine & rare label. You can definitely taste the age in the mouthfeel. This is a Pre-Billy Walker (Another legend) release but something we are very proud about.
This Speyside distillery's profile is pretty broad. The lemon touch and hints of sulphur in this dram could however have directed you towards GlenAllachie. Apart from those flavors you can taste mango chutney, peaches and honeycomb.
