This reminded me quite a bit of a tamer version of Laphroaig's Quarter Cask, maybe a bit of Lore and 10 thrown in for good measure. I wasn't a fan of the QC (was simply too woody for me), but this has its backbone with the features of 10 and Lore. It's a travel exclusive, and if you're a fan of the QC, this might be right up your alley. Personally, I'd buy the Lore, 10, 18 or Cairdeas series over this. But, given the choice of QC and this, I'd take this. Thanks to Richard@moderndrinking for the sample---it's not available in the US markets or airports, so I'm especially greatful for the experience.

Thanks for the review. It's available here but as you suggest I'll save my pennies for the Lore I think...and another bottle of the An Cuan :-)
@Joe: it's not bad, and I'd not refuse a pour---I'd even buy a bottle. But---if I had a fixed set of dollars to spend, and I wanted a Laphroaig---I'd choose a few others over it
I guess this one is best skipped over
