- Description
- Craigellachie 14 Year Old from the discontinued Flora & Fauna series represents a rare snapshot of this Speyside distillery's house style at entry to full maturity. The spirit displays the distillery's characteristic sulfury, slightly funky character—sulfur compounds that some find polarizing—balanced by gentle oak influence and underlying honeyed sweetness. The texture is medium-bodied with a dry, slightly mineral finish. This bottling appeals to adventurous Speyside enthusiasts and Flora & Fauna completists.
