Craigellachie

Aged 13 Years Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

One of the most fascinating single malts I’ve ever had. This is not for beginners. It’s oily and industrial in the best way, with notes of grain, honey and oak. I liked it a lot, but it felt incomplete, maybe a little one note. Certainly not an everyday drinker, but it was definitely educational. I’m looking forward to trying some of their alternative barrel offerings. — 7 months ago

@Hugh O'Riordan this was a wedding gift from a great friend. He was one upping my Macallan 25 for his wedding. My understanding is that this bottle used to be a part of a travel series, meaning it was available exclusively at duty free shops and the like. I think that’s where he got it. Since, Macallan has changed the bottle and made more widely available. A quick google search looks like you can get at high end shops.

Craigellachie

Berry Bros. & Rudd Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 2001

Some of our dear friends muled this bottle from their recent trip to Scotland. Craigellachie is not very well known outside of Scotland as little of it gets bottled under its own label. Instead, the majority goes into blends for Dewars. Bottled at cask-strength, my notes are after four drops of water. This is an explosion of honey, lanolin, Frosted Flakes, pine forest, and bandaid. This is an oily whisky with substantial body. The finish is looooooong...lasting for minutes. Super delicious! — 6 years ago

Poached pear and candied ginger, cinnamon and cedar, pine, burnt, and smoldering. Apples, orange zest, dried apricot, candied pineapple nose.
Orange oil, cinnamon, caramel, lemongrass, lemon oil and grapefruit conspire on a racy finish that lingers with perfume.

The Glenrothes

18 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Glenrothes used to have a relatively unique labeling convention. They would mark the distillation date (vintage date). They did away with all that and adopted a more traditional age statement for their bottles. This was a crazy dark color after seeing 18 years in ex-sherry casks. Delicious honey, nuts, and dried fruits. Smooth. A pleasant “oiliness” though not to the extreme that the Craigellachie has. Long finish. Rich and delicious. Definitely worth seeking out. — 6 years ago
