Thanks to /u/throwboats for pouring me a sample.

Another day in November, another Bruichladdich. Granted I’m not going to be posting this in November, however, it’s time to get some work done and do some reviews. I’m slacking!

Bruichladdich 22 1992 A. D. Rattray Cask Collection is up next in the “wow stop hoarding Bruichladdich samples and just review them already” bounty. I personally have enjoyed the cask collection, though I usually associate them with ex-sherry casks due to a pair of amazing releases that they brought out from Benrinnes.

Instead what we have is ex-bourbon hogshead Bruichladdich. Any time I hear that I get a bit tight-lipped. We associate Bruichladdich with wine casks, due to the relaunch.

This dram does come before the distillery was mothballed. How will it taste? Have I made a horrible mistake?

Let’s see, shall we?
