Cragganmore 1997

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Berry Bros. & Rudd

ABV: 58.6%

This Speysider has a nose that’s spicy and intense with notes of cinnamon, oak, nutmeg, and pipe tobacco. The taste starts off dry and spicy, then fades to reveal a slight caramel note underneath. The finish is long, dry, and spicy.
