About
Craigellachie Distillery, established in 1891 in Speyside, is known for producing unusually robust and muscular single malts that stand apart from the region’s lighter style. Its spirit is full-bodied and characterful, designed to carry bold flavours and extended maturation.
This 13 Year Old expression is finished in carefully selected Bas Armagnac casks from southwestern France, adding layers of rich brandy character, dried fruit and spice to the whisky’s naturally bold profile. The result is a complex and distinctive limited-style release.
Serving suggestion: Best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate the Armagnac influence, or with a few drops of water to open up fruit and spice complexity. Excellent as a contemplative after-dinner dram.
