Well, I picked this up on a whim when I visited the package store. It's hard to describe but if I were blindfolded I would think I was drinking a 15 year old scotch. No rye spice that I can detect, but definitely smokey/peaty. 109 proof but you can hardly feel that... I personally am not a fan... I'm not going to throw it away but I certainly don't look forward to a glass.

The funny thing is when I shared some to a friend who drinks nothing but scotch and he didn't like it either... Thought it was too bourbony. Which is pretty bizarre from my view point.

Anyway, I give it. A 2/10... I will not be looking for another bottle

Edit: well there are a ton of positive reviews out there so maybe it is just the batch I got? My bottle is a lot darker then most other reviews .. maybe I'll have to find a different batch.
