Official tasting notes.
Spicy scents, liquorice, well oaked, a puff of dried orange peel. Potent dark chocolate, cherries, fruit and a pinch of fiery pepper. Vanilla and nuttiness near the end bring forth vanilla chocolate and a nutty aftertaste. Warms the cockles of your heart.

Description
Forged in the heart of Speyside at a distillery famed for muscular malts, this Craigellachie whisky is a showcase for wood-driven complexity. Aged for 15 years in an Amontillado sherry butt, and then finished for one month in a virgin oak barrel, the whisky was then bottled at 64.2% ABV with a yield of 284 bottles.
Robustness comes from a lengthy stint in a sherry butt, with lively spiciness from its virgin oak finish. Sharp yet oily, peppery but chocolatey with notes of marzipan, who says we can’t have our cake, and drink it! 😉
