Conclusion: I like it and will buy it when I find it for a reasonable price. €50 is not a reasonable price for this 15yo blended malt, although I would be tempted.

More info: It is discontinued since 2011, but it sometimes still appears in shops.

From the website: "Four signature malts provide the key taste influences for this 15-year-old whisky. TALISKER introduces power and depth of character, CAOL ILA contributes mystery and intensity, and at its heart CRAGGANMORE provides a sweet maltiness, while LINKWOOD adds a final touch of finesse."
