I'm over NAS's pumped out for a quick buck...TRE hell..like Zerg in the computer game Starcraft they have the ability to multiply rapidly and destroy any taste buds in their path. They are what you get when you cross accounting with sales and marketing and ruthlessly suppress the poor master distiller who prefers quality over quantity. Now this isn't a bad example of one it's actually quite pleasant but it has no soul no sense of purpose unlike the fabulous 18 yr which is like I am Bunnahabhain let me destroy your liver with addictive goodness. It's sweet smokey goodness. Nothing more or less, well executed and fairly priced.
