Successive managers of Cragganmore have strived to continue to deliver the sweetest, most complex of Malt Whiskies.

Heritage:

The Cragganmore Distillery was founded in 1869 by John Smith, who is said to have been the most experienced distiller of his day.

Interesting Facts:

Perhaps the most revered distiller in 19th century Scotland, John Smith was a huge man, a pioneering "heavyweight" of the Whisky trade in every sense.

Smith designed Cragganmore distillery around a unique, flat-topped still to deliver complex aromas and flavors, so it’s a true "Designer Malt."

Cragganmore was considered by one of the world’s most famous and influential Scotch Whisky authors—the late Michael Jackson—to have “the most complex aroma of any malt.”
