Craigellachie No 1 Dram Good Whisky by Ceder & Tjeder 2003 12y
Advent Calendar 2020 21/24
Reviewed by victor
Tasting 24 samples totally blind in December 2020, you can find more here. All notes except the very last few sentences are written before reveal. Disclaimer: These are all very small drams, around 1.5-2 cl each, so doing a proper tasting is challenging. I'll do my best!
0.2 (Pale staw)
Nose
Lemon, salt, sharp, whiff of charred wood
Palate
Rubber, spice, tropical fruits
Finish
Spice, alcohol, herbal, vanilla
Quite sprawling, sharp and a bit dirty. Not a favorite, no idea what it might be.
Check out my other advent tastings!
