“Complex tastes going on with a nice finish. I do like that silky oilyness this one has , good value for money I would say . Doesn't need any water at all .”

Description
A cracker from Craigellachie, distilled in 2008 and matured for ten years before joining our very own collection of exclusive Master of Malt releases! The Speyside-based distillery is one of just a few remaining to use a worm tub condenser, resulting in a lusciously oily mouthfeel, and characteristically meaty, ripe fruit notes. A release of 398 bottles.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Heaps to explore here, with layers of vanilla caramel, pineapple fritters, walnut oil, and fresh vanilla pod. Nutty malt develops beneath, with notes of cardamom in tow.
Palate
Generous helpings of charred tropical fruit, caramelised pineapple, and banana chips with an oily minerality and subtle notes of spiced beer sticks.
Finish
Waxed peels, mixed spices, and more overripe fruit, with a pinch of dried chilli to finish.
