Glenallachie Meikle Tòir Peated Speyside The Sherry One Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Glenallachie Meikle Tòir Peated Speyside The Sherry One Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

The GlenAllachie’s peated project, Meikle Tòir (pronounced MEE-kuhl tor) has made it to Australia, and The Sherry One is launching officially with the Club this April.

For those peat-heads who like their whiskies smoky, hold on to your hats because the barley is peated to approximately 3x Lagavulin levels (equal to a spirit 35 ppm), and is exclusively Club Members in Australia in its official launch. This mega smoke-bomb is likely matching Ardbeg Supernova in its barley ppm and only a puff less than everybody’s favourite, Octomore (120+ ppm).

The peat itself is from mainland peat bog, St Fergus. The matter of woody material within this bog is especially high so provides a richness of lignin derivatives; in layman’s terms, this the peat bog is higher in phenols than most, lending a direct intensity of smoke to the whisky. Coupled with Meikle Tòir’s lengthy 160 hour fermentation period, and you’ve got yourself a fire-breather.

For those not too familiar with peated measurements, ppm is the total phenol parts per million of the malted barley which is is one of the malting specifications adjusted by the head distiller. As a purely peat-dedicated project, the peat in Meikle Tòir is measured in a unique way, as devised by AnCnoc distillery: rather than measuring the ppm through the barley malt as is traditional, they instead measure the spirit itself. As the phenols change through the mashing, fermentation and maturation process, Meikle Tòir are committed to measuring peat at the spirit level, providing a more truer and authentic quantifier for whisky lovers to gauge what they’re drinking.
