Cant find it locally. I really enjoyed this. To my newbie palate it was smooth, silky, and was a pleasure to sip. Didn't see a review of it AVB. Ever have it?

friggin keyboard, the m isnt workin right
 
I haven't had any for a very long time (like a decade) but I do have the 18 yo UK version on my "to buy" list. I'll be looking forward to your review of the 12 in the near future.
 
Okay, I found it!!! Got three bottles. Here is my review, live and unrehearsed. I poured a dram or two over some ice. Side note: did you know the word 'dram' is the root word for 'drama' in the Greek? Sure, guys would have a little too much ouzo with their moussaka and the drama, or 'Greek tragedy' would begin. If you believe that....But I digress.

The glass smells of fruit, perhaps peach with a hint of citrus. Now the sip: Mmmm, smooth as I remember. Not too much smoke for my palate. Nice round flavor, you can taste the malt. Just a bit of pepper as it slides down. Nice warmth. Words fail me, newbie that I am. But this I could get used too. I feel happy about my purchase. Ray, you want a bottle?
 
Sure, I've got $2K tied up in booze orders at the moment so what's a few dollars more. Thanks for the offer. LMK what the damage is and I'll send you a check.

Thanks for the review too :thumbs:
