I think this stuff is very underrated. Blend with single malt and pot still is not the norm. Writers tears has this as well albeit higher pot still. I snagged this on sale with two glasses for $19.99 . Nose has some complexity with honey, green tea and fresh sunflower. Good legs and nice mouthfeel, flavor is rich with great body and balance(almost scotch like) tasty malt with pot still spice. Finishes smooth, long, savory drying out to oak. A real gem imo kinda like a young budget Redbreast. Think I have to stick to pure pot still , single malts or these type of blends as regular grain blends are not in same ballpark for me. I already returned to get another one of these for backup 84/100
Update : see this now for around $32.....think im gonna try Writers tears

@Anthology its was a holiday pack. For 20 bucks this is a no brainer
Just saw this come on sale for $19.99 locally, which I think is a bargain regardless. Worst case, will use it as a mixer or in rando cocktail experiments. @Ctrexman did the two glasses come standard with the packaging or was it one of those holiday gift editions?
100% agreed. Great value pick. Nice review!
