The debut release of The GlenAllachie’s Sinteis Series — “Sinteis” meaning “synthesis” in Scottish Gaelic — showcases the harmony of two bold cask styles. The whisky matured in virgin Chinquapin oak from Missouri, known for its spicy character, and first-fill Pedro Ximénez sherry puncheons, celebrated for deep sweetness and richness. Bottled at full cask strength of 57.8% ABV, with no chill filtration and no added color, it delivers an unfiltered expression of GlenAllachie innovation.
