- Description
- Craigellachie's 1999 vintage was aged for 14 years in bourbon barrels before Signatory bottled it in November 2013, yielding just 614 bottles from two paired casks. Bourbon maturation preserves the distillery's characteristic waxy texture while allowing its underlying honeyed and fruited notes to develop with measured oak influence. This release suits those who appreciate Speyside subtlety unadorned by sherry's heaviness.
