- Description
- Craigellachie's 1999 vintage aged for 23 years in a single oloroso sherry cask, released by La Maison du Whisky as part of their Exceptional Cask Series with 582 bottles. The oloroso influence brings rich amber colour and layers of dried fruit, spice, and leather characteristic of quality sherry maturation. Craigellachie's naturally sulphury, waxy character melds with the cask's generous sweetness to create a compelling Speyside expression. A serious single cask for sherry cask enthusiasts seeking depth beyond mainstream offerings.
