Glenallachie 14 Year Old Tasting Notes

Woody's tasting notes

Nose: Heather honey, Scottish tablet, fresh hay, linseed oil and ripe pear.

Palate: More honey, apple, orange and lemon peel, brown sugar and oat cakes.

Finish: Oily with white fruit, pepper and cloves.

Ed's review

Colour: Natural colour, medium amber, or honey. Oily in the glass, with legs that develop slowly.

Nose: Red berries, almonds, walnuts, and caramel. Digestive biscuits. Oak and a suggestion of leather. Light wood spice.

Palate: Medium mouthfeel. Redcurrants, black currants, and stewed apples. Fruit and nut milk chocolate. Star anise and black pepper. The alcohol is well integrated given it sits at 62.7%, providing just a little bright warmth.

Finish: Long finish. Big and rounded, like a crescendo to the whisky. Further fruit and caramel with a little spice.

Meet The Founder

Woody Tan

Originally from Hong Kong, Woody Tan has lived in Scotland since 2011. He studied an MSc in Brewing and Distilling at Heriot-Watt University, and then went into the cask trade and warehouse keeping. While looking after casks, he started to discover gems that he felt had to be shared with fellow whisky lovers. He bottles these special casks under his Woodrow’s of Edinburgh label.

Woody has an excellent palate, and a knack for uncovering really flavoursome casks. He’s also a wizard when it comes to cask experiments, and has released some interesting cask-finished whiskies.
