- Description
- Craigellachie 19 Year Old was aged in equal parts first-fill sherry and bourbon casks, creating a distinctive profile richer and more biscuity-sweet than the distillery's younger expressions. The combination of wood influence yields orchard fruit, toasted oak, and subtle spice with a coating texture at 46% ABV. Ideal for Speyside enthusiasts seeking complexity beyond the tropical fruitiness of entry-level releases.
