This used to be my whiskey of choice before moving on to single malt scotch whisky. For the price (about $55 in Australia as previous post said) it's pretty good value but in my opinion does not come close to the complexities and flavours of single malt scotch whisky. It is quite easy to drink with ice and can provide a good talking point as it is from arguably the oldest distillery in the world (founded in 1608 I believe).
