The Darkness Craigellachie 10 Years Old PX Cask Finish 65.2% Vol. 0.5 l + GB comes from the Darkness series by Atom Supplies, an independent bottler that is characterized by exceptional cask maturation and exciting whiskies. Distilled at the famous Craigellachie Distillery in the Speyside region, this whisky has been specially matured in Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry casks, giving it a complex sweetness and depth. With an impressive alcohol content of 65.2% vol., this whisky brings a remarkable strength and intensity that harmonizes wonderfully with a fruity and sweet note thanks to the PX cask maturation.
The Darkness Craigellachie 10 Years Old PX Cask Finish is a perfect example of the craftsmanship of Atom Supplies, who are renowned for creating whiskies with unique cask finishes. The whisky is first matured in traditional ex-bourbon casks before being transferred to Pedro Ximénez sherry casks for the final finish. This post-maturing not only brings the intense fruitiness of the sherry notes, but also a balanced spiciness and a complex depth that make this whisky a special experience.
The bottling is neither colored nor chill-filtered. It is a limited bottling.
Presented in an elegant gift box (UK), the Darkness Craigellachie 10 Years Old PX Cask Finish is an ideal gift for whisky lovers and connoisseurs looking for an intense, exceptional whisky. (automated translation)
