The Glenallachie Distillery was founded in Aberlour in 1967 and following two decades of operation the distillery was purchased by Invergordon Distillery, who subsequently mothballed the operation. It was owned by Chivas Brothers who then sold the distillery to The GlenAllachie Distillers Co. Limited. The distillery have the pleasure of  whisky great Billy Walker to run the distillery and turn this quiet distillery into a worldwide whisky powerhouse. Billy Walker had great success at BenRiach, GlenDronach and Glenglassaugh turning the operations around and producing some of the best whisky we’ve ever experienced. We are more than confident that this distillery is one to watch for many years to come.

Adelphi exist to identify the very small number of casks that have produced the ultimate whiskies. The criteria for selection include rarity and maturity, but above all flavour. These whiskies are both rare and sought-after – these very special casks are so rare that, on average, Adelphi accepts a mere 4% that it is offered. Each single cask of whisky matures its contents very differently, imparting its own character to the whisky it holds and, as a result, there are never two Adelphi’s quite the same.

This single malt whisky was distilled in 2007 at the GlenAllachie distillery before being placed in a refill ex-Pedro Ximenez Sherry cask and left to mature for 12 years. In 2020 it was bottled at 59.7% abv as part of the Adelphi Selection. The GlenAllachie distillery is known for producing whisky that is full bodied, lightly peated and slightly sweet and it is celebrated as being one of the best Speyside malts there is.

Only 621 bottles were produced for worldwide distribution.
