GLENALLACHIE MEIKLE TOIR THE ORIGINAL 5YO 40% 700ml

Meikle Tòir (pronounced MEE-kuhl tor) is The GlenAllachie’s peated project. The peating levels (PPMs) are pretty high and were taken from the mature 5-year-old whisky. The Original comes matured in 1st Fill Bourbon, Rye and American virgin oak casks, with a spirit PPM level of 35ppm (that's close to something like Lagavulin or Ardbeg). Notably, these whiskies employ mainland peat from St. Fergus (like Ardmore), a flavour which is generally sweeter than that of coastal peat.
