Tasting Notes
Imagine sinking your teeth into a juicy, charred pineapple, its tangy sweetness mingling with the aroma of dry straw and fried banana. That's the alluring nose of this Craigellachie 10 Year Old 2012 whisky, enticing you to take a sip. On the palate, a burst of orange oil envelops your taste buds, followed by the comforting flavors of freshly baked biscuits, vanilla, nutty muesli, and a medley of tropical fruits. As the whisky lingers, notes of cacao and sweet tobacco emerge, leaving a lasting impression. This rare gem, initially aged for over eight years in a first-fill bourbon barrel, spent an additional 16 months in a rum cask, infusing it with robust, tropical notes that perfectly complement Craigellachie's spirit character. Bottled at 48.2% ABV, non-chill filtered, and with its natural color, this limited edition of just 115 bottles is a true treasure for whisky enthusiasts seeking a unique and flavorful experience.
