GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Chinquapin Virgin Oak Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky
- Unit price
- / per
From Batch 2 of GlenAllachie’s Virgin Oak Series, this 10 Year Old single malt showcases the bold influence of Chinquapin oak. The whisky was first matured in American oak ex-bourbon barrels before undergoing secondary ageing in casks made from Chinquapin Oak (Quercus Muehlenbergii), sourced from Missouri’s Northern Ozark region. These casks were air-dried for almost four years, then toasted to a medium level, allowing the spirit to extract vibrant layers of spice and sweetness. Bottled at 48% ABV, non-chill filtered, and with no colour added, this limited release is a zesty, complex expression of GlenAllachie’s innovative wood management.

Founded in 1967, GlenAllachie has risen to prominence under the leadership of Master Distiller Billy Walker, known for his pioneering wood policy and dedication to small-batch production. By experimenting with casks from across the globe, the distillery pushes the boundaries of Speyside whisky while maintaining a rich, approachable house style. The Virgin Oak Series exemplifies this spirit of innovation, offering limited editions that showcase unique layers of flavour and character.
This release highlights the distillery’s Virgin Oak Series ethos: exploring the impact of rare oak species on Speyside spirit. Chinquapin oak brings a lively mix of citrus zest, spice, and honeyed sweetness, making this whisky both vibrant and complex. At 48% ABV, with no colour added and non-chill filtered, it is a pure, authentic expression of GlenAllachie’s adventurous approach to cask finishing. A standout bottle for collectors and fans of bold, distinctive malts.
