Historically not in love with Glenallachie on the whole, but these recent CS expressions are starting to convince me. Really loved the CS5, the 6 sounds great! Great review!
Yeah definitely! We think the batch 6 is more interesting and has deeper notes than the Batch 2, we haven't tried any of the batches in between.
The GlenAllache 15 is the best value for money 15 year you can buy in my opinion, would recommend you give it a try if you haven't already.
I completely agree. There's a lot of hype surrounding Billy Walker and Glenallachie in general. I just got a bottle of this Batch 6 and it is very nice. Nevertheless, it remains a typical sherry bomb. Sherry bombs have no distillery character and have to be judged on whether they are a good sherry bomb or not. This is a good one but it's not alone in that judgement as there are plenty of fine sherry bombs for £100. I was not a fan of the 15.
So glad to see a review of this. You’re the first. Slainte!
Great! Haha we got in there quick! Slainte!
Wonderful review! Love the GA all expressions!
Thank you! Yes, we are loving them at the moment too!
Ladies, thank you for the review. I'm going to pull the trigger with this release tomorrow!
Sláinte!!
Great walk through a solid whisky. Well, I can't say since I have not had the Batch 6, but I certainly love what Glenallachie has been putting out. Just found your channel, subbed' Cheers!
Thanks for the subscribe! Glad you enjoyed!
Great review! Funnily enough quite a few of these bottles just showed up at the store local to me in Texas. Now I can’t wait to try it out.
Oh defos grab them while you can!
Solid review. Interesting to see the Rioja finish having an impact with all the extra dark red fruit and spice!
Thanks! Yeah! Really interesting dram!
Got Batch 4 in the cupboard. Picking up Batch 5 today, which I bought at auction. Hoping I wouldn't have to go through auction for Batch 6, but sounding like I will.
I recently bought a bottle because I knew I'd not be likely to see it again nearby. It's Ledaig 18, and I drove an hour away to get it. The bottle is still unopened on my shelf, but having just watched your video comparing that one to the Caol Ila 18, I think my afternoon today has Ledaig written all over it. Glenallachie of any sort has not made its way to my area, but I'll be keeping an eye out for that, especially this cask strength one. Also, I noticed in that other video you have a few Loch Lomonds on the shelf. Their 18 year old is odd and interesting, a favorite at the moment considering its price, and I am the only one of my drinking pals who likes it. Well, that works out just fine. The fewer the merrier, as they say. Thanks for insights, Grail.
The Ledaig 18 is absolutely magical! You'll love it! Hope the Glenallachie gets to you soon, its a real treat! Totally opposite end of the scale from the Ledaig. Yeah Loch Lomond is one of our local distilleries and they are doing really interesting things, you should try their Single Grain too if you get the chance!
WOW !!! the most adorable whisky girls on RUclips and they aren't Merican's . I love it and they drink good whisky.
Thanks, adorable comment! Glad you like our taste in whisky!
Enjoyed Batch 5! Curious about Batch 6
Great job ladies. Slainte...
Thank you!
Great to see this review ... any sherry in there ? peace bubble gum. Can't wait to see it down here in New Zealand.
Thank you! Yes, its a combo of Oloroso sherry, Pedro Ximenez sherry and Rioja wine casks. Its a total sherry bomb of a dram but a wee bit more coplex with the rioja cask. Hope it gets to you down there soon!
Nice review!! batch 6 looks better than batch 2,3,4
Thanks! We think we agree, although we've only tried the Batch 2 and Batch 6.
That ballon smell you describing, I get on the Springbank 12CS releases.
Ah! I knew I wasn't alone on that! 😂
Nice one. I could only manage to get a sample from a friend. So difficult to get a bottle. Just subscribed to your channel.
Thank for the subscribe! Such a good dram! Its good to have generous, sharing friends!
@@TheGrailTastings t is. Making whisky reviews is an expensive business
Can’t wait to get a taste! The whisky seems fine too
All I can find where I'm at in Texas is the Batch #2. I'm guessing I'll have to get into the auctions to find the other batches.
Oh not sure!? We only have 5cls of the Batch 2 left here ! Hope you mange to get hold of one!
a very interesting review. Thank you. It seems a bit misty compared to previous batches. Could it be the case?
Thank you! Do you mean the liquid is a bit cloudy?
@@TheGrailTastings Yes I do. It may just be the lighting...
Great review! Do you manage to get this batch 6 from local liquor shop?
Thanks, glad you liked it! Luckily for us, we are our local liquor shop! So yes, we did!
I wish I liked Glenallachie more than I do - It ticks all the boxes of my Scotch criteria, but it’s never cracked my top three, even after trying the 10, 12 and 15 year.
It just shows it can be exactly what you want on paper but you have to try it to know for sure!
Great review, not so sure abput the camera quality.
😂Thanks, we have upgraded for our more recent videos and we are improving on the tech all the time! Glad you like the review anyway! Hope you keep watching! Sainte! 🥃😊
That's Some Pound Cake alright~!!!
Totally! (and totally had to google pound cake as well! 😂)
Have you tried batch 8?
ps Billy, Billy Walker! Billy, Billy Walker! (For Rachel)
I don't think we have tried any since batch 6 actually!
Appreciate the song, thanks!
Batch 5 was great! When did They release Batch 6 ?????
Last Thursday
@@pgut7614 no release news nothing why? Hope it comes soon to Germany
It will soon, about 4000 bottles inbound!
@@pgut7614 Great! Thanks for the information!
Batch 8 worth a go do you think ?
Sure it will be!
GlenAlci lol
Didn’t like Glenallachie, From a blend filler to single cask releases.... but some of those are good, 🥂The hype with billy walker is just all over the place
Yes, its the distillery of the moment just now! They are coming out with some really rich, syrupy drams.
