Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Rich amber with golden highlights; medium body with slow, oily legs
Nose
Honey, caramel, and heather-floral notes with delicate baked red apple and a subtle undercurrent of malt and herbs. Complex for a 12yo — elegant rather than showy
Palate
Layered malt sweetness with herbal notes, hazelnuts, citrus peel, and a hint of cocoa. The hallmark Cragganmore complexity emerges — simultaneously sweet, spicy, and faintly smoky. Medium body with a silky texture
Finish
Elegant and sweet with hints of sandalwood, smoke, and lingering dry spice. Medium-long finish that rewards patience
