I'm sipping a 12 year old single cask, cask strength limited edition and enjoying it.
My immediate thoughts went to the Japanese products I enjoyed before they became unattainable for ordinary humans. This shares the forest, fresh air quality (grassy does it no justice). A subtle drop but the higher abv gives real punch without losing a coherent flavour profile. A drop of water releases the full taste range.
On the nose, forest air. Love it. In the mouth apple, custard and a welcome citrus edge to heighten the experience. The finish is not huge but leaves the palate tingly.
Different. Perhaps not for everyone. But I give it a more please rating.

@cascode it is certainly an unusual, even challenging, drop especially given where it is made. How you enjoy.
A nice dram, this one - the only unpeated Loch Lomond and the stills are very unusual. You've inspired me to open a bottle :-)
