Description
About half a year later after their first release, Torabhaig, the new Isle of Skye single malt distillery, announce their second release: Allt Gleann. Allt Gleann is the second reference from The Legacy Series by Torabhaig, named after the eponymous stream, one of Torabhaig’s water sources. This reference will be slightly stronger …
This bottling is a distillate of spirit from 2017 and 2018. It’s bottled on 07.2021 after maturing on 1st Fill Bourbon & Refill Bourbon Casks.
Torabhaig was built within the walls of an old farmhouse – barely a ruin until a few years ago in a very swampy area – amid the spectacularly beautiful, unspoilt countryside of Skye, known as one of the most beautiful islands off the west coast of Scotland. The new Torabhaig distillery guarantees a combination of contemporary and traditional influences (such as the wooden washbacks to promote complexity in the new make). It is the first new distillery on Skye in no less than 190 years, and is also only the second -legal- distillery the island has ever known.
After the impressive restoration, the stills first started running in January 2017, now four years later the first Torabhaig whiskey bottlings are finally available. Nice detail: Torabhaig is one of the only brands that mention the residual peat content (the peat content at the time of bottling, which is logically a lot lower than in the base malt) on their label.
