This Craigellachie has been bottled especially for the Chinese New Year and was distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2021 from a butt which produced 550 bottles.
Ronnie of BB&R says: “Butter and grassy nose then ‘into the mash tun aromas’. Floral notes soft and plant-like, then dried fruits, humbugs and cloverflower honey, marzipan and toffee. Powerful in ABV it takes to water delivering a delicious waxiness, lillies and herbs with spices and jute on the memorable finish.”

According to the distillery the name Ballechin originates from a fellow Perthshire farm distillery, which sadly closed in 1927. There, Alfred Barnard, who catalogued all the distilleries in the UK in the 1880's, made reference to having experienced a peated whisky. This bottling is predominantly from ex-bourbon casks with a generous top dressing of ex-Oloroso sherry casks to create added depth and greater complexity.

Master Distiller Graham Coull describes this whisky as 'intense Oloroso sherry flavours marry with sweet vanilla oak to produce a whisky which has a wonderful depth of character.' Apparently this goes well with shortbread or a rich fruit cake, or slow cooked chilli con carne.
