Tasting Notes

This 13-year-old Craigellachie single malt whisky is a true gem. Aged in a single bourbon cask for over a decade, it offers a unique and captivating experience. The nose is a delightful combination of freshly baked rye bread, rich farmhouse butter, and a hint of chocolatey digestive biscuits, with a subtle flint aroma adding depth. On the palate, it unveils a burst of orchard fruit flavors, like juicy clementines and crisp Jazz apples, complemented by a touch of black pepper that tingles the senses. The finish is gently smoky, with the sweetness of digestive biscuits lingering pleasantly. With only 189 bottles produced, this Golden Cask release from House of Macduff is a rare and exceptional dram that whisky enthusiasts will surely cherish.
