Craigellachie 2014 7 year old Coopers Choice Scotch Whisky

The Cooper's Choice range of single cask whiskies from Scotland's finest distilleries are releases from the Family owned Independent Bottlers; The Vintage Malt Whisky Company. The range is a homage to the passion and skill of the Coopers, the craftsmen, who build the barrels for maturation of Scotch Whisky. The range focuses on the impact of maturation in oak, and includes several obscure and rare wood finishes.

Craigellachie distillery is found in the Speyside region, and is respected for producing robust, spicy, warming and slightly oily in texture malts. Craigellachie, through fast distillation and minimal copper contact keep a higher sulphur level in their new make spirit. After time this sulfur has disappeared, but it's impact is felt through an increase in desirable fragrance!

This sprightly 7 year old Craigellachie scotch whisky was matured most of it's life in American oak before a finish in an ex-Sauternes wine cask, bringing notes of pineapples and apricots to sit alongside the cereal and nutty notes. A medium finish with gentle drying spices.
