About this deal

My local spirits shop has a 1995 Craigellachie 21yo Douglas Laing single sherry cask bottling that looks to be superb. I’ve not had the standard range, so I’m wondering how a sherry matured cask might match up to the official bottling. Thoughts?

Kate – Nose gets oakier as it sits in the glass, and the cereal notes fade. The mouthfeel is not oily; much more astringent than I expected! Spicy, oaky, watered down apple flavours, charred barrel, iodine with a hint of minerals. Peppery, apple, and more apple, creamed honey. Medium-long finish.This cookie is set by Rubicon Project to control synchronization of user identification and exchange of user data between various ad services. Oh hi. The nose is bonkers; meatier than the 23, a carnivore’s dream, with alluring sulphur notes, exotic notes of pineapple juices, wafts of vanilla and dreamy buttermilk with tonnes of spices rounded with a multi-layered herbaceous character I could not help but spend a lot of time with.

The second form of sulphur comes from barley and is naturally produced during the whisky-making process. If you cut down the amount of copper available to spirit vapour the higher the sulphur levels in the new make will be. What appears to not have been understood is that this sulphur disappears in time. It acts as a marker;an indication that once its cloak has been lifted a spirit will emerge either as meaty (Cragganmore, Mortlach, Benrinnes) or fragrant (Glenkinchie, Speyburn, Balblair, AnCnoc, and Craigellachie) In other words, sulphur can be desirable. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service.

As one of mine and my wife’s favourite whiskies, and whisky ranges, I was always going to be excited about reviewing the full range of products, as well as visiting the distillery (although the write up of that will come in a few weeks once I’ve been…). It’s remarkable how similarities can be drawn between the whisky boom (and crash) at the turn of the twentieth century and what we’re experiencing today. But first, we need to talk about value…again.

But beginning in the right place, the nose that is, the senses are set ablaze with a sulphuric smokiness that sparks alongside a tangy apple sweetness. On the palette this is developed and it tastes like a whole fruit bowl has been dissolved in the malty liquid. Craigellachie’s distillery, however, was only built in 1890. Designed by Charles Doig, it was built with all modern conveniences with the express intention of making a lighter fruitier character than the older distilleries – one of the earliest descriptors of Craigellachie mentions pineapple as a desireable aroma. Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. Palate: It opens very sweet with pineapple and custard creams, though the meatiness soon shines through. More smoke on the palate than the nose, with a touch of clove and oak.We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then. Any new functionalities, tools and features shall be part of and governed by the Terms from the moment they are launched and/or available. Further, we reserve the right to modify, change, discontinue the Service, add or remove features, update the Service, change its appearance, temporarily and permanently, at any time, in whole or any part thereof. Its fierce independence and community-focused content is funded by that same community. We don’t do ads, sponsorships or paid-for content. If you like what we do you can support us by becoming a Dramface member for the price of a magazine. More of that distillate sulfur than in the 13yo, so some meaty or cordite notes. Also more fudge, some soft oak, faint grass, cloth, and butter, and that tropical fruit note that comes with the distillate.
