The Distillers Edition is about 20 bucks more expensive than the 16 yo. Is the price difference worth it? Anyone have experience with one or both of them?

They are very different IMO....
The 12 is lighter on the palate than the 16 and is a bit spicier than the 16 as well....the 16 is somewhat sweeter.
The alcohol content is higher in the 12, 56% as opposed to 43% in the 16
The 12 benefits more by a drop or two of water than the 16 IMO.
I love both, but I give the edge to the 16.
