Here is a comment from Mr. Ephraim
Peter :
I got the 12 year Michel Gouvreur in New York City, in September 1997
for US$ 50.-
Alcohol: 43%
Color: Very beautiful dark color, a little turbid because it is unfiltered.
Smell: Very gentle, gets a little flat with time (e.g. compared with
a good Islay malt)
Taste: Well rounded, full bodied, very pleasant
Aftertaste: Delightfully mellow
Remark: I'm not used to blended whiskies and was surprised how
excellent they can taste. Michael Couvreur has not to stand back behind
my favorite single malts (full body, distinguished aftertaste no sharp
alcohol smell).
Total Score: 90% of total
Hmm... Wonder if it is the same Whisky we tested.
