I have heard a great deal about this scotch lately. It's rather inexpensive as well. It's already on the list, and it just moved up a few places.

Longrow 10yo, is another that has distinct hints of ocean saltiness mixed into it's flavor profile. A great Scotch!

Note: They are both Campbletown offerings!

Hey thanks, I'll try and get some of both.

Are you looking for malts similar to Glenfiddich?

Well not so much similar to glenfiddich but similar to that salty aftertaste.
