Limited Sale of 369 Bottles at Wine25Plus, GS25, and GS The Fresh
A limited edition of a world-renowned single cask whiskey will be sold at GS25 and other locations.
According to GS Retail on the 22nd, from this day, 369 bottles of GlenAllachie’s ‘GlenAllachie Single Cask 2011 GS Retail Edition’ will be sold through the liquor smart order platform Wine25Plus, GS25, and GS The Fresh.
GlenAllachie is a whiskey brand that has become a legend in the industry, acquired by master blender Billy Walker, who is called a living legend in the whiskey world. Under his leadership, the annual production was reduced from 4 million liters to 500,000 liters, and the fermentation time was increased more than threefold, transforming it into a brand that sells out immediately upon release.
The GlenAllachie Single Cask introduced by GS Retail this time is a whiskey distilled in 2011, matured in a single cask (oak barrel) personally selected by Billy Walker, and all bottled in 2023 before being dedicated to GS Retail. The GlenAllachie Single Cask features elegant and spicy flavors with notes of honey, blackberry, and ginger, has an alcohol content of 57.5%, and comes in a 700ml bottle priced at 299,000 KRW. Each bottle is specially marked with the cask number, distillation date, and bottling date.
This is GS Retail’s third exclusive single cask whiskey sale, following the Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Private Barrel in June 2022 and the Benromach Single Cask Yusagil X GS Retail in December 2023, both of which sold out within 48 hours of release. Notably, GS25 is the first convenience store to handle GlenAllachie Single Cask.
Kim Yumi, MD of the liquor team at GS Retail, said, "GS Retail is recognized as an important channel in the domestic whiskey industry,” adding, “This year, our annual plan is filled with the launch of products that will surprise whiskey enthusiasts who enjoy special liquor consumption.”
