The LongValley Selection presents independent bottlings from Scotland's whisky regions, which are finished – if necessary – in select casks for a period of maturation to create the finest spirits with a distinctive flavor diversity. The LongValley Selection Craigellachie 16 yo Single Cask Sherry Butt comes from the distillery founded in 1891 in the eponymous village of the Speyside region. This bottling perfectly reflects the character of the distillery and its region of origin: The single malt is a wonderfully smooth distillate that was allowed to mature for 16 years in a fruity sherry butt. With cassis, roasted aromas, leather, cloves, and cotton candy, this Craigellachie will make the hearts of sherry fans beat faster.
