Craigellachie 17 year old

So far, Craigellachie has only been owned by the independent bottlers, so there are finally original bottlings of the distillery.

The distillery is perched on a hill in the heart of the Scottish Speyside.
Since 1891 whisky is produced there according to the traditional method. The single malt whisky gets its unique taste through the curved copper tubes used for cooling, the so-called "Worm Tubes". The malts
receive thereby their characteristic fruity notes.

Whisky critic Jim Murray once said:
"Craigellachie I always prefer The Macallan ... If you get this whisky for sale, take as much as you can carry.
Its strength lies in the creamy softness, the oiliness that adheres to the palate, so that follows the long, sweet malt flavor a wonderfully smoky finish. "

Nose: clearly vanilla and tropical fruits
Taste: full in the taste, elegantly soft and creamy - again the tropical fruits, now figs and dates - some toffee
Finish: long, soft finish with some smoke and licorice

Super für sein Alter

Wundervolles Volumen und langer Abgang.
Anfangs fast schon scharf aber dann entwickeln sich wunderbare Aromen im Mund. Für sein alter durchaus komplex mit anklängen von echtem Lakritz.
Sehr gelungener Eichenfass Whisky und mittlerweile ein Standardwhisky in meinem Barfach.

Sehr gehlatvoll, andere sagen dazu scharf. Was für das Alter erstaunlich ist. Aber sehr interessant. Es gibt eine kleien Explosion im Mundraum, die ich sehr mag.
