“Hard for me to put a finger on exactly what I’m tasting, but it’s a quality whisky and it’s delicious. Meaty and substantial is about right I guess. Takes water well. ”
Jay Ford
Description
One of the three official Craigellachie bottlings released in 2014, the distillery's 13-year-old single malt Scotch whisky handsomely shows off the bold, robust character of the distillery's output. Think heaps of dynamic fruit notes with a distinctive current of smoke running through the middle. Single malt Craigellachie wasn't seen much outside of indie bottlings for a long time, and we don't take for granted how lovely it is to see Speysider thrive.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Apple orchards in bloom, slightly meaty, burnt popcorn, treacle tart.
Palate
Oily malt arrives first, followed by BBQ pineapple and summer berries. Pine nuts and almonds.
Finish
A very soft hint of sulphur hides behind biscuit and apple notes.
