Intro/Heritage:Craigellachie is Speyside with a growl, meaty, muscular, and made to age. In this 20-year-old single cask release from Douglas Laing’s Old Particular series, that bold distillate is paired with the deep influence of a sherry butt, resulting in a whisky that’s both richly indulgent and impressively structured. It’s not just a dram, it’s a statement.
Tasting Profile:Nose: Deep and commanding. Notes of prune, leather-bound books, roasted walnut, dark treacle, and wood spice rise with intensity and poise.Palate: Full-bodied and complex. Burnt sugar, black cherry compote, espresso bean, and nutmeg unfold over a robust malt core, textured and warming with every sip.Finish: Long, dry, and decadent. Lingering notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, and toasted oak create a richly rewarding farewell.
Production Details:Matured for two decades in a single sherry butt and bottled at 51.5% ABV with no chill filtration or coloring. This Old Particular bottling is a showcase of unadulterated cask influence, letting Craigellachie’s famously bold distillate shine through layers of seasoned wood and sherry sweetness.
Perfect For:The seasoned collector, the sherry cask enthusiast, or the drinker who prefers their Speyside bold and unapologetically flavorful. Ideal for post-dinner sipping or moments that call for something aged, rare, and soul-stirring.
Expert Notes:Craigellachie’s oily, sulphur-kissed profile is made for long maturation and in sherry wood, it transforms into something extraordinary. This 20YO expression is textbook Old Particular: single cask, no gimmicks, just flavor and time.
Customer Reviews:🗨️ “Big, brooding, and sherry-soaked. My kind of Speyside.”🗨️ “Craigellachie always delivers power — this one adds polish and depth.”🗨️ “Dry fruits, spice, and a meaty core. Complex and utterly satisfying.”
Interesting Fact:Craigellachie uses old-fashioned worm tub condensers, which contribute to its famously heavy spirit — ideal for aging in bold casks like this first-fill sherry butt.
Serving Suggestions:Best enjoyed neat in a large tulip glass to let its complexity breathe. A touch of water reveals layers of fig, clove, and bitter chocolate. Pairs perfectly with hard cheeses, fruitcake, or a dark cigar.
Distillery Background:Founded in 1891, Craigellachie has carved out a reputation for its unorthodox spirit, muscular, waxy, and proudly out of step with the Speyside norm. This 20-year-old Old Particular bottling is a prime example of what makes it so compelling: bold malt, bold cask, and bold identity.
