The Craigellachie 17 YO, presented in an elegant 70cl tube, is a true gem for lovers of single malt Scotch whiskies. Produced in the small and namesake distillery located in the heart of the Speyside region, this expression is distinguished by its distillation process that uses traditional stills and a cooling system with copper coil, giving the whisky a particular aromatic richness and extraordinary complexity.

This whisky is aged for 17 years in carefully selected barrels, which allows it to develop a range of balanced and sophisticated flavors and aromas. On the nose, the Craigellachie 17 YO releases lively notes of ripe fruit, particularly apple and pear, masterfully integrated with hints of vanilla and a touch of sweet malt. The addition of light smoky and spicy notes adds a further layer of complexity.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and enveloping, with an oily texture that carries nuances of dark chocolate, caramel, and a hint of black pepper, following the olfactory clues and confirming its elegance. The finish is long and persistent, with an aftertaste where smoky notes and a slight astringency persist, inviting another sip.

This spirit proves perfect to be enjoyed neat, possibly accompanied by a bit of water to enhance its aromas, or as a base for sophisticated cocktails that require a deep and mature aromatic profile. An ideal gift for whisky enthusiasts or a valuable addition to a connoisseur’s collection.
