You can definitely tell that the average age of the whisky in each blend gets older and older. The flavors become more dark & deep. The Blue definitely has a lot more going on for it than the others and is actually quite nice to sip on. I think the only downfall of it is that it's priced as a super premium offering when what it's bringing to the table is only premium. I'd say I wouldn't mind buying & keeping a bottle of this around if it was around the $120ish mark, but the current prices it's demanding of $200+ in WA State to $150ish elsewhere is a bit too high for what it offers. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - Maybe Would I buy a bottle? - If I could find one for about $120ish
