If we are comparing the popular 12 year old's, then this is hands down the best. Costs $45-$50, and worth every penny. When introducing scotch to newbies, this is the one I start with - unfortunately, most non connoisseurs think scotch is what they find with the blended well drinks at the local bar. Once you taste The Macallan 12 year old, you'll start a curiosity and appreciation with Scotch. Someone mentioned in their post - the way I judge other 12 year old scotch is by asking, "is this better than the Macallan". I have not found one just yet. I'm open to suggestions if others have.

Is Rowey the only one? For those of you that are not coal miners and/or have not used Pears coal tar soap - this drop is like drinking that same soap. Not to be disparaging but the perfume can be smelt from metres away. Ever tasted the smell of something?

- Oily, yet light
- Palate
- Balanced and smooth, light sweet taste, yet not overly sweet like the sherry casked. Pleasant, but not complex. Oak, hint of Black Pepper, Burnt/Caramel brown sugar.
- Finish
- Medium finish, bringing a sweet remnant to the throat. A little citrus fights to stay.
Overpriced, but a lovely dram none-the-less.
