Craigellachie 13 Year Bas-Armagnac Cask Finish Scotch Whisky
The new Craigellachie Cask Collection, according to those behind it, initially kicks off with the distillery’s 13 year old whisky. It is initially aged in American Oak – a combination of re-fill and re-char Bourbon barrels – and then laid to rest in Bas-Armagnac casks sourced from the northernmost part of Gascony, in France, for just over a year, to undergo a second period of maturation.

Craigellachie is the rock at the heart of Speyside, yet is anything but your typical ‘Speyside’ whisky. Considered old fashioned even in 1891, its muscular robustness comes from the traditional worm tub condensers that bestow extra flavour. It’s this full, yet aromatic, character that has made Craigellachie a prized malt since the late 19th century and highly-awarded in the modern age.
