This is incredibly overrated and not worth the exorbitant cost. Vaults 15 year from 2023 significantly outperforms it in blind tastings. It tastes very young and remains extremely disappointing even after sitting in the glass. It's entirely toasted oak with no sweetness whatsoever. It's almost too harsh. I'd advise trying it before purchasing. Two bottles of Vaults 15 2023 offer better value. I don't understand the 90-point rating; it makes me suspect it's influenced more by the brand than the spirit itself. 83-84 points maximum.
