This single malt was distilled at Craigellachie in 2008 and allowed to mature for eleven years in sherry casks, before being transferred for a final 15 months in Port barrels. Matured for a dozen years in total, it's a fantastic example of the whisky distilled at Craigellachie, brought to us by the wonderful indie bottler Murray McDavid for its Benchmark collection.~ Master of Malt

The Speyside region's rock, Craigellachie, is everything not your average 'Speyside' whiskey. Its fruity, muscular flavor, which was considered out of date even in 1891, is due to the employment of worm tub condensers. This robust but fragrant flavour goes against what is expected. Many distilleries in the earlier days of whiskey manufacturing used worm tubs to chill their alcohol. We continue to use this conventional method of returning our vapour to liquid form after distillation. We discover that the worm tubs give the spirit an added flavor, aiding in the development of our unique personality.
