More flavorful than Johnny Walker Red or Cutty Sark. But not as smooth and light either. However it is pleasing. Not worth the extra cost just because it is 12 years old. Might as well buy the Red.
Taste is very similar.
However, it is smooth and light. A 12 year old. But doesn't taste like it. Too harsh for a 12 year old anything. I list it here only because for some reason some people think this Scotch is a fine Scotch.
