Cragganmore Distillers Edition

A spicy and drinkable whisky

I'm giving it a three, but depending on my moods it can merit a four. It's quite complex. Very nutty on the nose, with fruit cake and almonds being predominant. The palate is spicy and tropical, with banana and orange surfacing on the tongue. The finish is winy, obviously from the port influence, and fairly long. I think my issue with this expression is by how unbalanced it can all seem at times. It's unruly. Still, worth exploring.
