I feel like this is a good example of why age doesn't necessarily mean good when it comes to whisky. I have a bottle of this at home that I'll be pushing on unsuspecting visitors to try and get rid of it faster. Overall, it's kind of like sherried rubbing alcohol. I've sat with this thing several times and I'm not getting anything more than that out of it. A friend bought a bottle for a tasting we did and it was even worse out of a fresh bottle. Not a fan and not something I'd recommend.
