About Craigellachie
Founded in 1891 on a key Speyside junction where the Fiddich meets the Spey. Famous for retaining old-school worm-tub condensers, which give the spirit a distinctive meaty, sulphury character. Not open for tours but the brand is now widely available as a single malt via Dewar's core range (13, 17, 23).
