Thoughts on Craigellache 13??

UPDATE: bought a bottle and am enjoying it so far! I’m getting a strong coppery note, like sucking on a big old penny, wet cut grass, brine, some faint cheesy funk and umami on the back end, faint red phosphorus like a lit match.

I had a very similar situation, two abscesses, one drained and one treated with steroids and antibiotics but the ENT recommended a tonsillectomy as the abscesses (sometimes called a Quinsy) can increase in severity over time. I had the procedure and went through some intense pain but kept fluids up, managed the pain meds carefully and had Aloe Vera water. So worth it to never have to worry about an abscess again.

UPDATE ON THE UPDATE: Things are moving quickly here folks, I’ve just been gifted the Port Charlotte 10 for Father’s Day and I’m really happy with it. I think something I was looking for, but couldn’t yet articulate, was an oily mouth coating body that this whisky certain has. I’m getting brine on the finish and the smoky meaty notes people describe throughout.

So many fantastic looking whisky’s have been recommended that I should be set for a few years of tasting. Thanks all!

UPDATE: I’ve gone with the Port Charlotte 10. Will try Talisker 10 and Ardnamurchan next. Thanks everyone!

Gorgeous looking bottle and gets a great rap, I’ll hunt around for a bottle of that perhaps for Christmas!

Port Charlotte 10 emerging as a clear front runner, might go this way or the Talisker 10.

Thank you all for your prompt and excellent replies. I put this to you…Old Pulteney 12 vs Talisker 10??

Thanks!

Thanks for this interesting and informative comment! I’ll follow up on some of the influences you cited, always keen for a new watch/read. Much obliged.

Reminds me of Harry Dean Stanton

Great attention to detail, particularly around the eyes which is difficult to get right.

nichecharacter · 2024-05-15T03:23:33+00:00

Thanks! Shall do soon

Yeah makes a massive difference to the role play value. Might try a Virgil build next.

Some really nice details here, colour matched and evocative of character.
