Finished in Bas-Armagnac Barrels
This Craigellachie 13 is the first in the Craigellachie Cask Finish series and has been matured for a minimum of 13 years, first in American Oak casks and finished in Armagnac casks from the Bas region.
Best Scotch: Craigellachie 13 Year Bas-Armagnac Cask Finish
Distilled by Speyside distillery Craigellachie and aged for 13 years, this release sees further finishing in Armagnac casks that hail from the Bas region of Armagnac. It’s bottled at 46% ABV. Craigellachie has always stood out a bit for incorporating age statements not often shared by competitors, and the Armagnac finish is just as atypical, as well.
Overall, this is a hit. It’s unique, not bludgeoned by the finishing cask and genuinely introduces an unusual finish on a strong footing.
