The railway lines from Lossiemouth, Dufftown, Keith and Strathspey meet in Craigellachie for the first time However. The volume feels slightly turned down. It’s a touch demure on the nose, particularly if you sniff it beside something else, as I did. There’s just not quite a wow factor, which for 100-odd of my English pounds, I feel I deserve. To quote a rather poncy line from Sideways, it’s “quaffable, but far from transcendent”. Nice flavours, but it isn’t a show-stopper. I’d like another glass … but I’m not desperate for one.

A little of smoke and malty. After 5 mins the melon and floral flavor come out (I can imagine this aroma is given by the aromatic compound called Beta Damascone). Oh hi. The nose is bonkers; meatier than the 23, a carnivore’s dream, with alluring sulphur notes, exotic notes of pineapple juices, wafts of vanilla and dreamy buttermilk with tonnes of spices rounded with a multi-layered herbaceous character I could not help but spend a lot of time with. But beginning in the right place, the nose that is, the senses are set ablaze with a sulphuric smokiness that sparks alongside a tangy apple sweetness. On the palette this is developed and it tastes like a whole fruit bowl has been dissolved in the malty liquid. As one of mine and my wife’s favourite whiskies, and whisky ranges, I was always going to be excited about reviewing the full range of products, as well as visiting the distillery (although the write up of that will come in a few weeks once I’ve been…).

a review of the Craigellachie range - GreatDrams Oh holy wow, a review of the Craigellachie range - GreatDrams

Henry – From the nose to the finish, there’s an underlying note of brine reminiscent of a coastal sherry. Apple blossom and Asian pear on the nose, with a tannic, oaky astringency on the palate which again hints of sherry, but sweeter. Cream sherry, perhaps? On the nose: truth be told, based on the color, I initially assumed a bourbon cask, but on the first few whiffs, I'm getting raisins, sun rype bar/fruit roll up, bit of chocolate fudge which tells me that there's a fairly vibrant sherry cask at work here.... bit more time gives me some apple notes and a slight bit of biscuitiness that would hint at some bourbon cask too.... just my guess anyways. Either way, very pleasant and enjoyable nose. great start On the one hand, it’s a decent whisky. I’d like another glass at some point. There are some very classic Craigellachie notes, there’s certainly more character than you’d find in some other whiskies, and there’s a good bit going on.If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
