Tasting Notes

Nose: Inviting aromas of baked apple, dried apricot, and subtle walnut, underscored by a gentle wisp of sweet smoke Palate: A rich tapestry of toffee, dark chocolate, and soft mulling spices unfolds over Cragganmore’s smooth, malty core, with hints of orange zest adding brightness Finish: Long and warming, lingering on notes of sherry-soaked fruit, a softly smoky undertone, and a final touch of oak and cocoa

Celebrate Cragganmore’s refined Speyside charm with this 25 Year Old 1995 release, part of the First Editions Authors Series dedicated to Tom Kettle. Drawn from a single Sherry Butt (#18444) and bottled in March 2021 at a limited run of 303 bottles, this expression highlights the distillery’s signature light smoke and complex fruitiness, elegantly elevated by extended sherry maturation.

The Distillery

Cragganmore Distillery, established in 1869 in the heart of Scotland’s Speyside whisky region, is notable for its four very short stills and the rare use of traditional worm tubs to cool its new spirit—a method that contributes to the distillery’s rich, full-bodied character. Although official bottlings, such as the Cragganmore 12 Year Old and Distillers Edition, are highly regarded, independent bottlers also release distinctive expressions that showcase the depth and diversity of this Speyside single malt.
