Indeed - I have a couple of bottles of the 12 at home - I even have half
a bottle of the 15 left, which I got at retail for €65 (a bargain, given
the last bottles were selling for around €120).

I also just recently learned about two other Irish bottlings from
Middleton - Writers Tears and the Irishman. They both sound interesting
& not too dear. I figure they're worth a taste, if nothing else. Anyone
come across them?

Cheers,
Dave.
