If you're expecting to brood over a glass of this for hours, smoking a fine cigar and scribbling down tasting notes, brace for disappointment. If you're expecting to have a couple of scotch and sodas while watching the big game, you'll do just fine. This ain't Talisker, folks. It's an inexpensive, peated blend that fares well with simple mixers. One of the better offerings at the price point.
