Cragganmoore 12 Single Malt Scotch


Distillery: Cragganmore
Style: Single Malt
Release: Unspecified
Age: 12 Years
Alcohol: 40% abv.
Region: Scotland: Speyside

An elegant, sophisticated Speyside with the most complex aroma of any malt. Astonishingly fragrant with sweetish notes and a smoky maltiness on the finish.
Color: Orange gold
Nose: Vanilla pudding, Floral
Body: Full bodied. Soft and warm.
Palate: Creamy, Vanilla, Rice or Tapioca pudding. Banana, Spice.
Finish: Cool and consistent.
The nose palate and finish of this whisky are very consistent with each other. Throughout the drinking experience there is omnipresent vanilla pudding and a slightly spicy kick. I drank this full strength and didn't experience any burn. It's simply delicious.
