As rare as
White heather
As Scottish legend has it, the elusive white heather brings good fortune to all who find it. But, by our reckoning, you’re just as lucky if you’re holding a bottle of our whisky, for blends of its quality are as rare as white heather.

Our Brand Home
Our whisky is aged and blended at The GlenAllachie Distillery by revered Master Blender Billy Walker. With over 50 years in whisky making under his belt, Billy has perfected his craft and implements his finetuned philosophies to create a blended Scotch that is sure to delight even the toughest spirits connoisseurs.
DISCOVER THE WHITE HEATHER
The key to blending is balance. Our grain whiskies are carefully sourced from two Lowland distilleries, selected for their ability to harmonise with the range of malts from Speyside, the Highlands and Islay. Both our award-winning 15 and 21-year-old expressions have an unusually high malt content because Master Blender Billy Walker was determined to create cohesion among the elements of the composition.

The whiskies selected by Master Blender, Billy Walker, were initially laid to rest in an assortment of American oak and Sherry casks. Once married together, the spirit underwent secondary maturation in quality Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso puncheons, as well as Appalachian virgin oak casks. Each step of the spirits maturation journey has been meticulously monitored to ensure it reaches its pinnacle.

Our White Heather 15-year-old promises a full-bodied taste profile, with indulgent layers of butterscotch, citrus fruits, mocha and sugared almonds, with gently peat smoke on the finish.

"If you ask me if blending is a science or an art, I would tend to err on the side of art, but to have knowledge of the science and to understand the expectation of what you know should be happening all through the process is very, very helpful when it comes to the more personality-driven blending side."
