The best blend
When I first tried this I thought it was a single malt. A lot of complexity, really a very well made dram. Not so Islay as it is a rich Highland taste. Great finish too.
The Grouseman
Agree totally with the Best Blend's comments. Is an excellent drink its a pity it doenst get as many mentions as the Famous Grouse
