Single Malt
Scotland
Tri Carragh
6 Jul 2011
A splendid Speyside single malt from Glen Elgin, distilled on 6 July 2011 and reracked in November 2022 for a 15-month finish in a first-fill Tawny Port barrique. Bottled at a hearty 55.5% ABV and non-chill filtered, this limited release by Tri Carragh of just 292 bottles shows the distillery’s classic fruit-forward charm wrapped in rich Port influence.
Dark chocolate raisins, orange zest, and treacle mingle with gentle floral tones of heather and lavender. A dash of water releases tropical fruit and clementine brightness.
It’s rich and spicy with cinnamon warmth and dark fruit depth. With water, it opens into juicier notes of red berries and soft stone fruit.
Lingering sweetness, oak spice, and a touch of cocoa.
