CRAIGELLACHIE 2005 11 YEAR OLD THE FIRST EDITIONS

CRAIGELLACHIE 2005 11 YEAR OLD THE FIRST EDITIONS

Single malt.

Craigellachie is another distillery that actively encourages sulphurous notes in its spirit by minimising copper contact during the distillation process. This is balanced by a long fermentation beforehand, allowing tropical fruit notes to emerge. Much like fellow Speysiders Mortlach, Benrinnes and Cragganmore, this makes it highly sought after by blenders.

In 2014 the brand was relaunched as a single malt, and several of their expressions have won industry awards.

Distilled: 2005

Bottled: 2017

Matured in Sherry Butt #HL13465

One of only 366 bottles released.

46% ABV / 70cl
