Craigellachie 13 Year Old Single Malt Whisky

Craigellachie 13 Year Old evokes Bonfire Night: aromas of oozing toasted marshmallows, fire-roasted pineapples and baked apples studded with cloves, with the tang of cordite lingering in the background.

A robust, muscular whisky with hoards of exotic fruits - a malt that defies the typical Speyside characteristic.
Initially matured in a mixture of ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks. 50% of the 'blend' is then finished in first-fill Sherry casks, the rest in first-fill Bourbon.

Nose:

Bonfire Night, Toasted Marshmallow, Pineapple, Apple with Clove, Tang of Cordite. Biscuit and Cereal. Fruity.

Palate:

Delicate and Light and Smooth, Baked Cereal.

All Craigellachie expressions are non-chill filtered, contain no caramel colouring and are bottled at 46% ABV.
