the beer revolu wrote: That's probably Peat The Magic Dragon. I haven't tasted that in a while. It's insane how the perceived level of peatiness changes over time - both up and down. I don't make the whisky, so I'm not really the person to ask
odyssey06 wrote: Yeah started to notice that, interesting tastings coming up but I've tasted at least 50% of the samples already. Might be worth the price of admission though for the craic with raconteur Michael at the tastings

The 12 is a fine whisky in its own right but the 21 is really, really good, it’s got a crazy depth to it. I hope the current 12 is as good at age 21.
