5 Craigellachie in my hunt for more

Hobbies are something that can go by the wayside. For instance, in the past few months, I haven’t been able to write many reviews or drink much whisky. Work, school, and oh, a small worldwide pandemic have gotten in the way. Thus why all the multi-reviews. So here we are, at Craigellachie. What can be […]

Craigellachie 9 2008 Single Cask Nation Oloroso Sherry Octaves

Thanks to /u/Saba007[ for pouring me this sample. When’s a raven like a writing desk?

Craigellachie 18 Cadenhead Small Batch

So I’m at Cadenhead’s recommended bar, having a nice dram, enjoying myself, and I ask them for a recommendation, which is really the only thing to do when presented with that much whisky. The bartender (great guy) mentioned I should go for one of the IB, as they were specific to the bar. Which was […]
