I shall do so....I expect great things from it. And I agree with you about the Macallan Amber being over rated for the price point. None of the new 'non age statement' color coded Macallans can hold a candle to the old Fine Oak series. Which is precisely why I put about 30 bottles away, ranging from 12-25 years. I also completely agree with your appreciation for the Aberlour A'Bunadh, a great dram indeed. The 10 year old is a go to everyday dram, one I can enjoy without thinking about what I paid for it haha. A fine distillery in every respect.
Oh, and for the record, this year's Cairdeas is better than last year's Port finish, in my opinion and contrary to the review I posted. I've had both, this one is really a great sipper, and worthy of attention. I've never had anything else finished in the Amontillado Casks, and I like it.
