      <content>Yes, both were good when i had them.  I don't know that they are on my "wish list," but I would never be disappointed if someone were to pour me some.  </content>

      <content>I agree with both JMF and Captain, these are good malts.  I find the flavor profile to be similar to a Highland Park:  rugged, malty, maybe a tiny touch of smoke.  Good stuff.</content>

      <content>I agree with Sku.  The LCBO (Liquor Board of Ontario) just got the Yamazaki 12 and 18.  Tried the 12 and quite liked it.  We also have the Yoichi 10 year old, which is wonderful.

I find it comparible to the Macallan 12yr old.  If you have it in your market, I suggest you give it a try.</content>
