Good Points
Nice tasing.
Interesting bottle shape (more "Toblerone" than "Tobermory").
Bad Points
Taste is very peaty and so is quite bitter compared with a scotch like Bells for example - most will probably want to mix this with a soft drink.
General Comments
I was first bought a bottle of Grants Whiskey by a friend. Having never tried it, the bottle was immediately opened and we both had a try.
I have to say this was a surprisingly nice whiskey. I'd seen it before but never tried it. My only thought up to that point was the interesting bottle shape - when viewed from above it's triangular and does look quite distinctive when on the shelf next to other regularly-shaped bottles.
That said, this is quite a nice blended scotch whiskey. Worth a look for blended whiskey fans.
