Detailed Description
This Allt-á-Bhainne single malt has seen over a quarter of a century of aging since its distillation in 1995. Initially matured in a bourbon hogshead, it was then moved to a combination of first-fill oloroso sherry and French red wine casks for its final six years. Eventually, at 26 years of age, it was bottled by Murray McDavid for the Mission Gold series, with an outturn of 660 bottles at 41.6% ABV.

Palate: Apricot jam, dark chocolate, tart strawberry.
Finish: Oily malt, pomegranate, vanilla, and spicy oak.
Distillery Information
A newcomer, Allt-á-Bhainne, (pronounced Ollt-err-VANE) was founded in 1975 by Chivas Brothers Ltd, then a subsidiary of Seagram and, as of 2001, of drinks giant Pernod Ricard. Built with the intent of ensuring a steady supply of whisky for Chivas’ blended products, the distillery’s unusual name derives from the Gaelic, ‘Allt a’bhainne’ meaning ‘burn of milk’. The distillery lies on the southern slopes of the rugged mountain range, Ben Rinnes and draws its water from a spring amongst the lofty peaks.Much like its neighbour Braeval, no official bottling has been released from the distillery and it is unlikely, according to its owners, that there will ever be any; there have been, however, some independent bottlings from bottlers including Deerstalker and Duncan Taylor. Closed in 2002, due to saturation in the whisky market, the distillery was reopened in May of 2005 due to an increased demand for the blend Chivas Regal, Allt-á-Bhainne being a chief component. Today, the distillery has capacity of 4.5 million litres per annum.
