Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep golden amber; natural colour with richness from extended bourbon cask maturation. Non-chill filtered with heavy legs
Nose
Intense pineapple chunks in syrup — the trademark Craigellachie note at its most pronounced. Spicy, rich, and complex, fortified with an intriguing sulphury backbone. Creamy vanilla and coconut from extended bourbon maturation
Palate
Sweet biscuity base with a hint of smoke. Creamy vanilla, coconut, and sweet oak from the bourbon casks are the headline flavours. Oak char, tropical fruit, golden syrup, oaky spice, malt loaf with the pineapple note intensified
Finish
Smoky and biscuity sweet finish. The bourbon cask influence creates a cleaner, sweeter finish than the sherry-influenced expressions, with vanilla and oak lingering
