Craigellachie 8 “Frisky Whisky”
Country: Scotland
Region: Speyside
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Dram House
ABV: 60.3%
Score: 78 Points
The nose starts off nice with vanilla, creme brulee, mild spices, and a hint of dry white wine. However, the taste is tart and bitter with overripe orange and grapefruit notes and touches of allspice underneath. The finish is sour and lingers far too long, overly cloying and fruity. Needs a lot of water to make it drinkable…and should have been bottled at 40% or 43% instead of cask strength.
