1994 Berrys' Own Selection Craigellachie, Speyside (57.4%)

Craigellachie was founded in 1888 by Peter Mackie and Alexander Edwards. Mackie later went on to build the Lagavulin distillery on Islay. The distillery is situated very close to where the river Spey is spanned by Telford's famous bridge. This whisky is rarely found in bottle as most of the production contributes to blends. Delicate smoke emerges with buttered toast aromas. There is some fruit skin sweetness edged with biscuit notes. The palate is full and rounded giving bursts of succulence. A nutty, dry, malty finish completes the experience
