Decadent Drams Craigellachie 2005 20 Year Old

Big cask Craigellachie that doesn’t care if you’ve had your dinner. A 2005 refill bruiser with four years of first-fill sherry bolted on at the end, bottled at 58.3% and soaked in pipe smoke, walnut oil, BBQ soot, and treacle you’d need a bandsaw to cut. It’s waxy, meaty, sulphur-kissed and unapologetically heavy. Think coal shed, old study, steak tartare and scorched fruit cake. Not elegant. Not clean. Just massive and magnificent.
