A freebie here. The Sassanach blended malt.
Summat to do with an actor.

Taste wise, it's slightly sweet and a bit of malt, orange be etc. Mouth is thin but finish is decent, slow but warm.
I feel it's a newbies dram and can see it enticing new buyers to whisky.
Very pleasant but a whisky drinker wouldn't want a bottle of the stuff
I'm rather partial to the Deanston 12 YO Grant - now that's a hidden gem bargain IMO, especially with so many whiskies I normally like (Springbank) being hard to come by and ridiculously expensive.Quote:

yes its very good too Tim. the virgin is bit cheaper at about 35 and equally tasty. deanstons 18 yr old is good value for its age too at about 70 notes. last bottle of it i got was actually 63.. deanston do some nice whiskyQuote:

an very smooth customer is Aberfeldy 16.. buttery smooth but plenty of spices just below surface amazingly the all compliment each other and it just stays smooth yet the mouth wants more.
a very good whisky for the price.
