Cragganmore was founded in Ballindalloch, Speyside, in 1869 and was the first distillery to take advantage of the railway system for transportation, with its own railway siding on the Strathspey route. The distillery was designed by Charles Cree Doig and the stone used came from the local hill 'Craggan Mor' (meaning 'big rock') which gave the new distillery its name.
Cragganmore has a complex fruity, toffeed style, being mostly from refill sherry casks. It has been the Speyside representative in Diageo's Classic Malts range since 1987.
