One of the best blends. Smooth and rich on the palate, medium-long end, with a subtle spicy presence in the very end. Pair greatly with a cuban cigar. Just a bit too overpriced, I mean it is a good scotch but not quite the best. There were some japanese blends in the same price range, there where in my opinion, better, but today they have reached such an overpriced cost that it is absurd, that's if you are lucky enough to find them in any shelves.
