GlenAllachie Meikle Tòir The Chinquapin 5 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

GlenAllachie Meikle Tòir The Chinquapin 5 Year Old is a unique and robust peated single malt crafted by Billy Walker and his team at the GlenAllachie distillery. As part of the Meikle Tòir (Big Pursuit) collection, this expression is matured entirely in Chinquapin virgin oak casks—an uncommon American oak species known for imparting bold, spicy notes and enhancing the whisky’s smoky, earthy profile. Distilled with mainland peat and aged for five years, this whisky showcases a captivating interplay between rich wood spice, herbal smoke, and underlying sweetness. Bottled at 40% ABV, non-chill filtered, and natural in colour, it’s a standout dram for peat and oak lovers alike.
