Craigellachie 13y/o 46%ABV 30mL

Bad boy of Speyside reissued with a hipster retro label - historically used mainly for Dewar's blends. Very changeable on first opening its a little spirity with funky vegetal notes. On opening up it has some green bitterness, mint, white pepper with sweetness of pineapple, lemon rind, grapefruit and barley sugar developing. Love it, but it's a little challenging and complex which is unusual as many other entry level Speyside core bottlings are boring in comparison.
