    Hi Guys

    I have seen this new kid on the block in a few shops. Pay day soon so I am wondering if it is worth treating myself? Has nyone tried it?

    If their poteen is anything to go by, probably not worth it.
    But having said that, it's unlikely that they made it themselves. I'm pretty sure they're not around long enough to have made and aged their own whiskey. Could be great.

    Too rough? No depth of flavour? Why exactly?

    Lacks depth 100%, tastes like a much younger whiskey to me. Lacks any real lingering after taste. Its all over rather quickly (I do prefer Scotch so maybe thats why this is an issue for my palate).
    Represents absolutely zero value, when for just another 10e you can pick up a bottle of Green Spot or Redbreast.

    Their own 10 yr old is due out in a few years so i'll look forward to sampling it.
