Craigellachie 11 Year Old Oloroso Cask Finish (Darkness)
This single malt from Craigellachie spent 11 years maturing and was treated to a finish in a custom-made oloroso sherry octave, thanks to the gang at indie bottler Darkness. Octave casks are nice and little, ensuring plenty of interaction between the spirit and wood, and thus in this case, plenty of fruity, nutty oloroso influence.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Soft, juicy peaches and apricots, toasted marzipan, vanilla custard, burnt brown sugar.
Palate
Stone fruits and vanilla cream open the way for candied almonds and roasted walnuts before woody notes of cinnamon sticks and liquorice arrive.
Finish
Dark, treacly toffee, warming nutmeg, anise.
