Please note, its best with a splash of water. It has a slight astringent quality when straight, but it mellows nicely with a little water with strong barley up front and caramel finish. I like it 2 parts whiskey to 1 part water. No rocks.

In any case, its miles better than Dewars White or Johnny Walker Red (whiskey flavored vodka).

BTW, ever try McClelland's? They have Islay and Highland single malt for ~$20 US. I've had the Islay, and I grew to like it. Seaweed, followed by smoky tobacco (the peat) and finishes with a little salt. Not an everyday scotch, but a nice change of pace at a good price.
