Meikle Tòir • The Chinquapin One 5 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Meikle Tòir - Scots - meaning ‘big pursuit’. Guided by revered Master Distiller, Billy Walker, the goal of Meikle Tòir is carefully craft and cask-perfected a peerless peated single malt at their Speyside home, The GlenAllachie Distillery.
Coming in at 35 PPM, the whisky has a sweeter style of smoke character owing to the mainland peat from St. Fergus used to kiln the barley. After a lengthy 160-hour fermentation, the whisky has a complex character which stands up well to ageing in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels, followed by Chinquapin virgin oak barrels.
