For such research purposes, I had another shot of Craigellachie last night, this time in my favorite shot glass, the one with a quote painted on the side that reads, "The problem with some people is that when they are not drunk, they are sober" W. B. Yeats. I decided not to let drinking scotch out of a glass quoting an Irishman be a problem. (I had to wash the glass first as it was dusty.)
Alas, I could not assign a single emotion to Craigellachie. It's rather smooth in your mouth and doesn't kick you in the pants until you let it start trickling down your throat. So, no single emotion, in the end Craigellachie is the taste of The Equalizer, it's all fun and games until Denzel starts the clock.
