Meikle Tòir Core Range - Four Whiskys with Smokey Notes Made With Legendary Whisky Blender
With the new Meikle Tòir core range, independent whiskey distillery The GlenAllachie offers elevated spirits with the perfect hint of smokiness with the hallmarks of Speyside. Meikle Tòir, known as “big pursuit”, is master distiller Billy Walker’s first core release that is entirely overseen and handcrafted from scratch.
The range includes four unique expressions of whisky: The Original, The Sherry One, The Chinquapin One, and The Turbo. Each bottle comes with a specially commissioned hand-drawn design representing the lush greenery of Speyside. With their luxurious motifs, they make a wonderful present for parties or weddings. The Original has a rich profile with a combination of baking spices, burnt honey and espresso. Plus, it has a hint of creaminess that is hard to resist. Meanwhile, The Sherry One has a warm and lingering scent of mocha, cedarwood, orange peel, honey and plum jam. If you are a fan of decadent flavours, you will enjoy the dark chocolate and smoked honey notes of this special whisky.
Alternatively, opt for The Chinquapin One if you prefer your spirits to be on the sweeter side. This smokey liquor has the aroma of burnt liquorice and smouldering oak embers, reminding you of a warm fireplace. However, the taste of this whisky is reminiscent of a fun dessert of crème brûlée and toasted almonds with cocoa. For a stronger drink, The Turbo has the highest concentration of alcohol, 71%. This bottle has scents of leather, dark honey, peat smoke, and a tinge of honeyed sweetness.
Now available for purchase and island-wide delivery at just $108 per bottle, get your hands on the Meikle Tòir core range with Asiaeuro’s website. You can even score free delivery if you order more than $150!

Its distinct sherried profile can be easily enjoyed at casual gatherings and occasions with friends.
Take a sip of its mature berry flavour and a whiff of fresh grapes and citrus scents. The Kavalan Triple Sherry Cask Single Malt Whisky has small doses of cinnamon and clover for a warm spiciness, complementing the oakiness and rosemary in this deep scarlet liquor. Pair this spirit with dark chocolate desserts, nuts, smoky meats, and mild spicy dishes for the best dining and drinking experience.

The 12-year-old Zanpa has a harmonious blend of custard and caramel with subtle notes of seagrass and roasted cashew nut.

If you have an adventurous palate and want to try these special Okinawan liquors, you can purchase them wholesale through this website.
