Detailed Description
A dark, sweet and lightly smoky from Cragganmore, its entry in the Diageo Special Releases 2020 line-up. There’s no actual smoke used during the making of this whisky, but there’s a definitely a charred note running through it, thanks to the use of freshly charred hogsheads in its maturation. However, it’s appeared in the whisky, the char compliments the classic Cragganmore character.

Nose: Nose is complex yet not overwhelming.
Palate: There is a much greater presence of peat in the taste than the nose suggests. The smokiness quickly hits the palate and then tapers off.
Finish: Long and warming.
