Cragganmore 12 Year Old 750ml

Complex Gragganmore’s reputation as perhaps the leading Speyside malt was quickly made after the legendary John Smith founded his distillery here in 1869. Mature and well balanced, with an astonishingly fragrant aroma, the slight fruitiness on the palate is overlaid with sweet, smoky notes. Complexity married to such refinement is not easily found.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Pale gold with rich substance.
• Nose: Exceptionally aromatic and floral. Expect a bouquet of heather, riverside herbs, and honey, balanced by sweet vanilla and a faint whiff of orchard fruits.
• Palate: A firm, rounded body. The taste is strong and malty, layered with sweet wood smoke, sandalwood, and chestnuts. It offers a creamy mouthfeel that evolves with every sip.
• Finish: Long and malt-driven. It concludes with a delicate peppery spice and a lingering, sophisticated smokiness.
