Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Rich amber gold from 6-year sherry butt finish; viscous and deep
Nose
Rich sherry influence layered over the classic Craigellachie pineapple-sulphur signature. Six years in refill sherry adds dried fruit and spice complexity
Palate
Full-bodied with the meaty Craigellachie character enriched by extended sherry maturation. The double cask approach creates layered complexity — bourbon sweetness meets sherry depth
Finish
Long finish with sherry warmth and the lingering savoury-meaty undertone. The extended sherry finish adds dried fruit persistence
