Tasting Notes

Nose

Honeysuckle, forest fruits, berries, dark chocolate, cucumber, light peat smoke, polished oak — complex and layered

Palate

Oily, full-bodied — dark plum sweetness from the port, toffee, raspberries, brambles, cherries, cocoa — drier mid-palate with emerging oak

Finish

Long — dancing between plum wine notes and grain oak, ending with a whiff of smoke — the flat-topped still complexity evident

Expert Review

7/10

Part of Diageo's Classic Malts Distillers Edition range. Double matured with a port wine cask finish — adding dark plum sweetness to Cragganmore's signature complex character from those unique flat-topped stills and worm tubs. A modest upgrade over the standard 12. 40%.
