Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with a coppery sheen and a mahogany-tinged edge.
Nose
Opulent on the nose, this Craigellachie unfurls dark dried fruits, caramelized honey, and waxy malt. Sherry depth threads red apple, fig, and cocoa, while leather and spice lend refinement, finishing with a subtle, smoky sulfur note that speaks to the distillery's rugged heart.
Palate
Full-bodied and waxy on the palate, this Craigellachie unveils a lush sherry-wrapped core. Prune, fig and raisin mingle with orange zest, brown sugar and toasted almond, while cinnamon and clove provide a warming, spicy lift. Rich oak adds backbone, with hints of coffee and cocoa. The finish is long and velvety, tapering to peppery warmth and a whisper of smoke.
Finish
Long, warming finish with sherried fruit and dark cocoa. Raisin and fig meld with toasted spice, a hint of orange zest, and oak-driven warmth that slowly fades into velvety sweetness.
