“If you take a look at the label for their Craigellachie you can see a very accurate picture of a worm tub, complete with giant worm on top… Sorry, what’s that? … Worm tubs don’t actually have giant worms attached to them, they just kind of look like worms a bit? … Oh.

Notes from That Boutique-Y Whisky Company.
Craigellachie Distillery
It is a single malt Scotch whisky distillery found in Aberlour, Banffshire near the village of Craigellachie at the centre of the Speyside whisky producing area of Scotland.
The name Craigellachie means ‘rocky hill’ and refers to the cliff that overlooks the Spey across from The Macallan distillery.
The distillery was built in 1891 by Craigellachie Distillery Co. Limited, a group of blenders and merchants led by Alexander Edward.Two years later, it was incorporated as a limited company and in 1896 it was reconstructed as Craigellachie-Glenlivet Distillery Ltd.
During the years that followed, ownership passed to Peter Mackie (in 1916), the Distillery Company Limited (in 1927) and SMD (in 1930). The transfer to SMD marked the beginning of a period of stability for Craigellachie; apart from a reconstruction in 1964-65 during which the number of pot stills was doubled, relatively little happened at the distillery. In 1998, it was sold to John Dewar & Sons.
The distillery has released only a handful of official bottlings. The distillery’s product is currently primarily used for Dewar’s blended whisky.
In 2014, a 13-year-old, 17-year-old, a travel retail exclusive 19-year-old, and a limited 23-year-old were released as part of the Dewar & Sons’ Last Great Malts of Scotland.
In the early years the distillery workers hid a pipe inside the leg of their trousers and helped themselves to a dram.
Craigellachie is actually rather simple and fun to say; craig-ELL-ack-ee.
