    Bought couple of these secret Speyside bottlings. Not cheap so going to auction one to bring down the price of the other is the plan.... never done this before! If not ... Got a couple bottles of 17 yo Macallan to try!

    I had a chance to try this at a whisky festival last weekend and it's a really good dram in my opinion. You won't lose either way Banos.

    Totally agree.

    Same I tried it at AJs a while back. Very nice. But I'm too tight to spend the money it's demanding now.

    Highly recommend the Murray McDavid Cask Craft range to anyone looking for excellent value, quality whiskies. Only £32 each.

    No. Surely they would say if it was single cask. It's not in the blurb. They also don't say what the age is. Legally all risky must be at least 3 years old IIRC. I'd guess it is mixed cask single malt, older and not so old. But this doesn't take anything away from it. Certainly worth a try.

    I found the 15 year much nicer than the 12 but a lot more expensive.

    Tried those on a Robert Graham virtual event a couple of years back, seem to remember the 105 was pretty punchy
