Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep amber-copper with ruby tints from the port cask finish; medium-full body
Nose
Sweet malt and dried cherry with hints of peat smoke, oaky spice, and vanilla. The port finish layers dark fruit sweetness over the classic Cragganmore complexity
Palate
Apricot and toffee with sweet plums and dark chocolate, balanced by oaky spice and vanilla. The port cask influence adds a rich, vinous quality without overwhelming the distillery character. A delicate peat note adds depth
Finish
Long and warming with persistent dried fruit, cocoa, and gentle oak tannins. The port-wine sweetness lingers elegantly
