Factoring in the price along with the overall quality and drinking experience, this is a good buy. I enjoy this more than some 12 years old blends. However this whisky does exude youthful characteristics and should not be compared to any whisky of age (but I do think it’s better than some, just my opinion). Oily mouthfeel but lightly flavored, grainy but malt is there with a youthful sweet spicy/pepperiness. Caramel, light green fruit, cinnamon, orange, vanilla with a little oak. Moderate to short but smooth finish. There are some bad whiskies out there, this isn’t one of them. I think this is enjoyable, but this is such a light whisky, it can act as a neutral base. This has The Macallan in it, so mixing in just a teaspoon or two of The Macallan 12 sherry cask or Lagavulin 16 and wow, really transforms it! Definitely a must have in my liquor cabinet.
