Craigellachie 17 Year Old Whisky

This is a whisky that invites contemplation. The extra years of maturation allow subtle influences from the cask to shine through, bringing a delicate underlying sweetness that complements the distillery’s robust spirit. You’ll still find the trademark tropical fruitiness, now deeper and more exotic, but there’s also a richer texture, hints of toasted oak, and a soft, lingering spice that suggests time well spent in carefully selected casks.

Craigellachie is one of the few distilleries that still uses traditional worm tub condensers, which help preserve the weight and complexity of the spirit. In the 17 Year Old, this translates to a mouthfeel that’s satisfyingly oily and layered, allowing each sip to reveal new nuances. It’s a whisky that rewards slow enjoyment - ideal for those who appreciate bold single malts with a distinctive point of view.

Whether you’re a long-time Craigellachie fan or exploring our range for the first time, this is a dram that offers real depth and character, and one that makes a lasting impression.

Craigellachie 17 Year Old opens with soft notes of vanilla and rich exotic fruits, offering an immediate sense of depth and warmth. On the palate, vibrant hints of dried pineapple bring a tangy sweetness, balanced by a subtle undercurrent of smoky liquorice that adds intrigue and complexity to the finish. A bold yet refined dram with layers to explore.
