Description

Cragganmore 1973 is a single malt whisky from the Prima & Ultima Third Release. This exceptional whisky has complex aromas of almond oil and is derived from the oldest casks, filled soon after the coal-heated stills turned to steam. This marks a milestone in distilling that gave birth to a new age where craft and vision could walk hand in hand. This whisky is a pathfinder for the smooth whiskies of the modern-day, with a nose that is more complex than usual and a palate that is sweet but pleasantly tart.

Nose
A very mellow nose with just a little prickle to start, which soon disappears. In the rich top notes the immediate impression is almost sherry-like, soon becoming sweeter, with almond oil or almond cake. Also lightly fruity, with tropical fruits; papaya, ripe mango, plantain banana, and apricot. Finally, there are some fragrant floral notes, the base reminiscent of a sandalwood cigar wrapper.
Palate
A creamy, even lightly oily texture and a sweet taste, which soon becomes pleasantly tart, with a hint of caramelised orange, then oaky-dry with light tannins.
Finish
Quite long, with a gentle, spicy warmth, and finishing dry, with vanilla fudge lingering in the long aftertaste.
