Craigellachie 2013 Berry's Cask #302040
The Tasting Notes
Fresh hay, malt and fireworks, before orchard fruits and a softer floral side of rose petals and Port.
The palate is notably thick, with more barley, eau de vie, underripe vanilla and blackberries before a puff of wood smoke and digestive biscuit appear.
Long and one can feel the spirits oils lingering and showing a touch of peppery spice.

The finish is long and one can feel rhw spirits oils lingering and showing a touch of peppery spice.
