There's a 105 too. Look at the colour difference between the 12 and 15. Might have to come back to the 15. But the 105 is more lively.

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

I assume you meant 15 year? If not apologies.

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

No the 105 is a single cask iirc

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.

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

Got this recently.

Looks really good. Let us know how you like it. I’ve had my eye on a bottle for some time but a bit overweight on Dalmore at the moment so waiting to finish off what I have before adding more

The one I'm holding is the original version which was discontinued early 2000s I think. I have had a few bottles of the current Cigar Malt Reserve and it's a very nice dram.

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

Yeah, I know what you mean Banos. A lot of the whiskies are going up and up in price now. More and more I'm looking at the independent bottlers for my drams going forward.

Right I've almost caned the Sb10.

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.
