Craigellachie 11 Year Old Pedro Ximénez Cask Finish (Darkness)
Craigellachie's single malt boasts a rich and robust character that does just splendidly when it's aged in a sherry cask, as you'll see in this 11-year-old expression, bottled by Darkness. The whisky was given a finish in a custom-made Pedro Ximénez sherry octave cask imparting heaps of thick toffee and sweet caramel to the vibrant malt at its core.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Notes of dark mint chocolate are backed by creamy maple fudge and peppermint creams.
Palate
Treacle toffee, Crunchie bars, maple and pecan pastries, with charred oak and burnt biscuits beneath.
Finish
Sticky ginger cake, buttered malt loaf, burnt sugar, and earthy, herbaceous notes of dried mint.
