Nothing better than a birthday gift of scotch. On the nose lemon, pear, honey, saltwater, peat. On the palate much the same. Honey and pear first, followed by smoke, ashy peat, brine. A little peppery finish with vanilla and lemon showing up. The proof is an odd number, but it seems like I've seen that number before, so it must have some significance that I'm not aware of. I'm sure @cascode will know. Overall, I think this is pretty good, I enjoy it, and all the more considering it was a gift. I wonder if it stays in the shadows of the Islay heavyweights because the price isn't as competitive. Seems like this goes for about 70 around here, which seems too high. I will definitely enjoy this bottle though.

I couldn’t get behind this. Tasted so muted and weakly flavoured that I was just left wondering why I wasted the time of swallowing it, breathing air would of satisfied me to the same extent.
Ledaig is always been a good value for money
One of my favorites for around $50.
@Ctrexman that sounds reasonable.
I like this too though it usually goes for 45-50$. 70 is Oogie and PC10 territory
Not a clue 😃 The same reason why Talisker releases everything at 45.8, I guess.
