Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Rich amber with copper highlights from sherry cask influence; natural cask strength colour. Non-chill filtered
Nose
Smooth and subtle — spice, liquorice, and ripening pineapple cloaked in creamy vanilla and malty sweetness. The single cask character gives focused intensity
Palate
Tropical fruit and vanilla dominate at cask strength. The sherry influence adds dried fruit and spice depth without overwhelming the distillery character. Rich and oily with the signature Craigellachie meatiness amplified at 55.2%
Finish
Long finish with spice, vanilla, and the lingering sulphury-meaty depth characteristic of Craigellachie. The cask strength delivery extends the finish considerably
