Tasting Notes

Colour

Rich copper-amber with a warm mahogany glow and a touch of ruby-red depth.

Nose

Opulent and refined, this Cragganmore opens to a sherry-kissed tapestry: dried fig and raisin mingle with orange zest, honeyed malt, and almond. Cocoa and spice creep in as warm oak and polished leather notes provide depth, while a faint whisper of smoke lingers in the background.

Palate

Silky, medium-bodied and lightly oily, with honeyed malt and orchard fruit—ripe pear and citrus zest—folded with vanilla and toffee. A delicate spice of cinnamon and nutmeg dances with the oak, while dried-fruit echoes linger, delivering a refined, lingering finish.

Finish

A long, refined fade of warm malt and honeyed fruit that lingers with gentle spice. Oak and a touch of almond carry the distillery's sweetness into a crisp, lightly spicy finish that lingers softly on the palate.

Discover Cragganmore

Cragganmore
(Crag-an-MOOR) Cragganmore was founded in 1869 by John Smith at Ballindalloch in Speyside. Smith had already worked at distilleries including The Glenlivet, Macallan, Glenfarclas and Wishaw before building Cragganmore, and the site was chosen with transport in mind: it became the first distillery in Speyside designed to take direct advantage of railway access. The name comes from the nearby craggy hill, Creag Mhòr.
