My expectation were high on this one. Perhaps the one with the old brown label (Laphroaig matured in a refill hogshead (40%), Ledaig matured in a refill hogshead (20%), Caol Ila matured in a refill hogshead (13%), Ardmore matured in a refill hogshead (26%), and a Highland Malt Blend matured in French oak Burgundy toast barrels (1%) would be a better drink with Ledaig and Ardmore being part of the blend. Unfortunately I can no longer find it. This particular whisky has (Caol Ila matured in a refill hogshead (64%), Laphroaig matured in a refill hogshead (35%), and a Highland Malt Blend (1%).) I am not a big fan of Call Ila which is one of the components of Jonny Walker. And if I want Laphroaig, I will get single malt Laphroaig. So not sure what was the idea of creating this blend.
