Each Distillers Edition expression undergoes a second (or ‘double’) maturation in casks that have previously held a fortified wine.
The complexity of Cragganmore prescribes an out of the ordinary choice for a second cask finish. However, port-wine casks provide the perfectly harmonious partner. Sweet and deeply fruity oak-smoked malt; a long, dry finish.
“The Cragganmore has been finished in a ruby port wood cask, and the aroma is much fruitier than usual. This fruity character lingers on to the fuller-bodied palate, where oranges and port can be detected. It is notably less dry than the ‘house’ style, though ultimately the finish does dry considerably in characteristic Cragganmore fashion.”
NOSE : Sweet (jelly-babies) and malty. Fruitier and juicier than the standard bottling. A hint of smoke.
BODY : Light to medium, with rich undertones
PALATE : Firm, sweet, with smoky undertones and fruitiness. Malt, oak and smoke at the base. Intriguingly layered.
FINISH : Medium to long with fine, oaky expressions, from bananas and vanilla to cocoa. Much drier than it began.
