This 15-year-old single malt Scotch whisky was distilled at Craigellachie and matured in a hogshead before bottling at 46.0% ABV. For a new whisky drinker, that generally suggests a style with good body and a clear balance between distillery character and cask influence.
Craigellachie is widely known for a robust, old-fashioned Speyside profile rather than a very light or delicate one. Expect a fuller, characterful whisky where malt, fruit, and oak can play a more noticeable role than in softer, sweeter styles.
