Part of Diageo's Special Releases in 2016, Cragganmore 'Fine Lines' Limited Edition was matured in a combination of refill and rejuvenated American oak hogsheads and ex-Bodega European oak butts. Bottled at the cask strength of 55.7% ABV, this limited edition is one of only 4932 bottles produced. The name and theme of the release were inspired by the Cragganmore distillery's connection with the Victorian railway; Cragganmore was the first Speyside distillery sited to take advantage of the Strathspey railway and had its own siding to accommodate distillery traffic.
This no age statement (NAS) expression comes from the meatier end of the Cragganmore spectrum, packed with rich and weighty flavors that open up to reveal sweet fruit and brown sugar with a drop or two of water. The whisky's profile includes a wonderful balance of tropical fruits, creamy notes, and subtle earthy undertones, making it a distinguished addition to any connoisseur’s collection.
