The notes make this Craigellachie sound most interesting where savoury and sweet meet: edamame and Matcha sit alongside chocolate, while the finish brings Christmas cake and lemon juice. That contrast feels more appealing than a simple run of rich, sweet flavours, though the mix may be less settled than a restrained profile. The 18-year age and Oloroso hogshead are context, not a guarantee of balance; the character described is what earns my interest.
