A small distillery in the largest and most famous whisky region of all in the Scottish Highlands, Cragganmore is derived from “Great Rock” in Gaelic. Cragganmore Distillery was founded in 1869 by John Smith, who is said to have been the most experienced distiller of his day. Before, he had been manager of Macallan, Glenlivet and leaseholder of Glenfarclas Distillery.
Each bottle has sweet floral notes with hints of wood smoke, riverside herbs, vanilla and cereals. Its floral notes are ideal with sweet rich tastes, including lobster and even roast suckling pig.
