Members' comments "Most unique - a Lowland with a big Highland lingering malt and no peat or wood. Lowland origin is perhaps apparent after water is added". "A different whisky, yet it demands consideration". "A permanent cure for the ague. Has a definite pharmaceutical future". "As distinctive as Laphroaig". "A mild numbing sensation with a strong hint of malt under dominating alcohol". "Big and gutsy. Desires a little water". "Most interesting. The maltiness is a strong clean flavour".
