Has more depth and is less harsh than the Quinta ruban with a decent balance of wood and Sherry. Tastes just a tad like cough syrup, but I still appreciate it. That said, it could be argued to be better than the original Genmorangie due to it's added deptg, but is definitely inferior to the Nector D'Or because of it's cough syrup flavor. It isn't bad scotch, but at this price, one might as well upgrade or downgrade ever so slightly to get the best bang for one's buck.
