I picked this bottle up a few years back and the only disappointing aspect is the proof. I find the mixture of barley to be excellent. There's smoky, peat and sweetness that (don't hit me) reminds me of Lagavulin, but the proof is too low for such a flavorful whiskey. I would like to try this in the mid to high 40s abv. I enjoy this Whiskey very much, but its light, especially in the finish.
