Craigellachie 23 Year Old Whisky

As with all Craigellachie whiskies, the 23 Year Old is non-chill filtered, naturally coloured, and bottled at 46% ABV to retain the full integrity of the spirit. It remains true to the distillery’s unapologetic style - bold, characterful, and just a little off the beaten path.

The extra years of maturation allow the flavours to deepen and evolve. Notes of creamy vanilla now shift to the palate, joined by hints of warming spice, toasted oak, and subtle menthol, which lift and balance the dram’s richness. The signature Craigellachie pineapple note is still present but now more concentrated and caramelised—charred, sweet, and slightly smoky. Predominantly finished in Olorosso sherry casks, this it arguably the richest and boldest flavour from the Craigellachie core range.

The use of traditional worm tub condensers continues to give this whisky its weighty mouthfeel and signature sulphurous edge, making it a dram that holds your attention from the first sip to the long, satisfying finish.

Craigellachie 23 Year Old is not just a whisky for collectors, it’s a whisky for those who appreciate substance, structure, and a spirit that stands firmly in its own lane.

On the palate, it opens with smooth vanilla and warming spicy cinnamon, gradually unfolding into a refreshing menthol freshness. The finish is marked by a smoky, campfire pineapple note that lingers with a bold and memorable character.
