XOP Craigellachie 1995 23 Year Old Single Malt Whisky (Private Cask for Year of the Pig, Hong Kong and Taiwan only)

This is the private cask selected by Hong Kong and Taiwan to celebrate the onset of the Lunar New Year, marked as the Year of the Pig in the Chinese zodiac.
The Craigellachie 1995 has been fully matured in an ex-Sherry butt and bottled at a cask strength. The whisky is said to have a ‘rich mocha, cocoa character with candied peels, allspice and stewed red fruits’.
Only 640 bottles of the 23-year-old have been produced, with each one numbered and presented in a wooden gift box containing a certificate with a New Year’s message from chairman Fred Laing and director of whisky Cara Laing, Fred’s daughter.
