Worm tubs!\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Craigellachie \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;(pron. Krai-GELLachy)\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; distillery is located in Aberlour, Banffshire near the village of Craigellachie, at the center of Speyside. The distillery was built by \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Peter Mackie\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;, who already owned the Lagavulin distillery, in 1891. At that time, \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Whisky experts\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; noted that Craigellachie represented a style of Whisky “seldom met with now”, referring to their usage of \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;worm tubs\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; to cool their Spirit, and bestow it with extra flavor; something they continue doing to this day. Worm tubs are an old-fashioned condensing system, an intestine-like ring of metal coils submerged in cold water. It is through these coils that the Spirit is passed and cooled slowly, resulting in a\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; curiously meatier Spirit\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;. Only a few other distilleries, such as Old Pulteney, Glen Elgin, Mortlach, and Springbank also use worm tubs. \u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Craigellachie 13 YO \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;is one of three Craigellachie bottlings released in 2014. \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Meaty and oily\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;, as is typical for this distillery, the 13-year-old shows a lot of talent, especially at this price. Curiously interesting, the 13-year-old exudes characteristics of an older Whisky, more in the range of 18-20!\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;u\u0026gt;Smartass Corner:\u0026lt;\/u\u0026gt; \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Craigellachie means rocky hill in Gaeliec.\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; \u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45132213715126,"sku":"39362","price":15.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/craigellachie13yearold-700ml_39362_01_3ea8223b_e28a0eae-89f2-4721-9403-b9af00a6608e.jpg?v=1779123026","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/craigellachie13yearold-700ml-39362","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
