Craigellachie 2017 Murry McDavid - 55,3%
Wenn der eigenwillige, fast schon robuste Charakter von Craigellachie und die fruchtige Eleganz portugiesischer Portweinfässer über acht Jahre hinweg eine Allianz eingehen, entsteht ein Single Malt, der handwerkliche Präzision in jedem Schluck erlebbar macht. In dieser Abfüllung der Cask Partnership Series zeigt sich die Kunst der Nachreifung in einer besonders ausdrucksstarken Form.
Tawny-Port-Barriques der Caves de Murça veredeln diesen Craigellachie. Ein fassstarkes Spiel aus Würze und Crème brûlée.

Product information "Craigellachie 2017 Murry McDavid - 55,3%"
Destilliert im Jahr 2017 bei Craigellachie, einer Brennerei, die für ihren traditionell schweren und markanten Stil bekannt ist, reifte dieser Whisky zunächst klassisch, bevor er ein zweijähriges Finish in Tawny Port Barriques der renommierten Caves de Murça erhielt. Der unabhängige Abfüller Murray McDavid unterstreicht mit dieser Kreation seine Philosophie der „Art of Maturation“. Die Kombination aus der charaktervollen gemälzten Gerste und dem Einfluss des nordportugiesischen Starkweins wurde mit kräftigen 55,3 % Vol. abgefüllt, wobei konsequent auf Kühlfiltrierung und die Zugabe von Farbstoffen verzichtet wurde.
In der Nase entfalten sich zunächst süße Karamellnoten, die von reifen Äpfeln und einer malzigen Tiefe begleitet werden. Am Gaumen offenbart sich die Komplexität der Trockenfrüchte, die harmonisch mit einer markanten Würze und dezenten Eichenholznoten verschmelzen, während im Hintergrund Anklänge von Crème brûlée wahrnehmbar sind. Der bernsteinfarbene Whisky verabschiedet sich mit einem langanhaltenden Nachklang, der eine elegante Balance zwischen der Süße des Portweins und der robusten Struktur des Destillats hält.
Mit einer limitierten Auflage von lediglich 1199 Flaschen richtet sich dieser Single Malt an Genießer, die das Spiel mit hohen Alkoholstärken und intensiven Fassaromen schätzen. Wir empfehlen den Genuss pur bei Zimmertemperatur, wobei ein paar Tropfen Wasser die vielschichtigen Gewürznoten noch weiter zur Geltung bringen können. Dieser Craigellachie ist eine hervorragende Wahl für Momente, in denen ein Whisky mit Ecken, Kanten und einer tiefen aromatischen Geschichte gesucht wird.
