Meikle Toir The Chinquapin One Whiskey in the Park
From GlenAllachie's peated Meikle Toir range (Gaelic for "the big pursuit"), this Speyside single malt is built around mainland St. Fergus peat for a softer, sweeter smoke. Matured first in ex-bourbon barrels and then finished in virgin chinquapin oak from the Northern Ozark region of Missouri, it pairs campfire smoke with rich oak-driven sweetness. Expect a nose of smoldering oak, honey and orange peel giving way to cocoa, creme brulee and toasted almonds on the palate. Bottled at 48% ABV, non-chill-filtered and natural color.
