Craigellachie 2007 / 15 Year Old / The Debonair's Pursuit / Wemyss Speyside Whisky

Priya Sharma — A proper Speyside treat

9/10

Picked this up on a whim and I'm glad I did. Rich honey and stewed orchard fruits on the nose, with a lovely waxy texture that coats the palate. At 46% it's got enough punch to hold up with a few drops of water but drinks beautifully neat. Fifteen years has done this cask proud.

Clara Johansson — Solid but not cheap

8/10

Good whisky, no question. You get that classic Craigellachie meatiness underneath layers of vanilla and dried apricot. At nearly ninety quid though, I keep comparing it to other 15-year-old Speysides that come in a bit cheaper. I'd buy it again on sale but probably not at full price.
