Here is a comment from Mr.
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.
