This is a special bottle: the one that started me on my Scotch exploration. Notwithstanding that it's over-priced and over-hyped, the big daddy Mac 12 is a classic. I still prefer the Glendronach 12, however, which goes for less. My Rating Glossary: Two Stars: "I'd rather be drinking lite beer." Two 1/2 Stars: "Posh rubbish." Three Stars: "I love whisk(e)y. This is average love." Three 1/2 Stars: "May buy again." Four Stars: "I've got to get you into my life." Four 1/2 Stars: "Better than drugs." Five Stars: "Life is good. Whisky makes it better."
