Glenallachie Macnairs Lum Reek 12 Year Old

Description

Type: Blended Malt
Region: Scotland
Strength: 46% alc/vol

The recipe, created by industry veteran and Master Distiller/Blender of the Year, Billy Walker, includes both peated and unpeated whiskies, including aged GlenAllachie single malt.
The small batch expression was matured at The GlenAllachie Distillery in a combination of first fill Bourbon, Pedro Ximénez and red wine casks until the whisky reached its optimum. The consequential bronze spirit, offered without added colouring or chill-filtration, reveals sophisticated notes of sweet peat reek, warming mocha, Scottish heather, and butterscotch.
Our Lum Reek 12-year-old has won some incredible global accolades, including Double Gold (San Francisco World Spirits Competition, 2021), Best Blended Malt under 12 Years (World Whiskies Awards, 2020), and Gold (Scotch Whisky Masters, 2021).
‘Lang may yer lum reek.’ The old Scottish saying literally meaning ‘long may your chimney smoke’, is a traditional way to wish someone a long, healthy and prosperous life.

Tasting notes:
Nose: Sweet peat reek, butterscotch, warming mocha, and gentle nutmeg
