Everybody's palette is different, for me it's one of the best buys at that sort of money.
Imo it leagues above any of the watered down swill that most distilleries are throwing out at £20 odd quid a bottle. This is only £24 in tesco atm, I'll pick up another one of it pover the weekend for sure.
The whisky game has moved on a lot even since I began my journey 4 yrs ago. The price of the good stuff has nearly doubled and we are left with just run of the mill NAS bottling to fill the void at the cheaper end of the price scale.
Laphroaig 10 is superb if you can get accustomed to the taste. Apart from Bushmills 12 which is a distillery exclusive, you need to go £50+ to get something really nice to sip over, Imo of course
