Craigellachie 13 Year Old Whisky Minature

At 13 years old, this whisky expertly balances a youthful vibrancy with the rich complexity that comes from over a decade of careful maturation. On the nose and palate, you’ll discover an inviting array of tropical fruit notes, with ripe banana shining most prominently alongside subtle hints of grilled pineapple and citrus zest. These bright fruit flavours are layered beautifully over a firm and sturdy backbone of oak, which adds structure and depth. Complementing this is a delicate whisper of gentle smoke, giving the whisky a subtle, smoky character without overpowering the fruit.

One of the most distinctive features of Craigellachie 13 Year Old is its slightly meaty, sulphurous edge - a unique characteristic that comes from the distillery’s commitment to traditional methods. The use of age-old worm tub condensers, a rare and somewhat old-fashioned technique, imparts a heavier, more textured mouthfeel and adds remarkable depth and weight to the spirit. This makes the whisky feel robust and muscular, setting it apart from many other Speyside single malts.

Whether you’re new to Craigellachie and want a carefully crafted introduction, looking to explore more of our bold and characterful range, or curating a thoughtful tasting set to share with friends, this 5cl miniature is an excellent choice. It’s also perfect as a gift for whisky lovers who appreciate something a little different; a taster that invites curiosity and conversation, offering a glimpse into the rugged charm and distinctive style that define Craigellachie.

Scented with spiced, honeyed plump fruits. Syrupy in texture, with layers of vanilla and creamy fudge, and just a whisker of smoke on the finish.
