Yeah i noticed this offer. I have had a few bottles from First Cask, and found them perfectly drinkable, honest and clean whisky. Perhaps from slightly tired casks. I haven't tried any of the current though. I missed out on a 30yo Glenlossie that was £50, that still bugs me. The Miltonduff 22 1982 that i had i really enjoyed, so i fancy that '83.
