Hi Ralfy. I went about hunting for these indy malts in my local market ... and I was able to find a BenRiach 15 yr. Dark Rum finish for 40 USD.

Have you tried this one before? Do you recommend it at this price? The BenRiach website claims they only bottled 350x6 of this expression!

... KEEP GUESSIN' MALT-MATES, ... W.R.200 will be somethin' special, but available and affordable to maltsters.

My final guess on #200 is GLENMORANGIE.

I hope the mystery malt is Octomore.

My guess on mystery review #200 is Scapa 16 YO. I recently bought a bottle and it is really tall. Wonderful malt it is. Smooth, light, sweet honey, floral: heather, fresh cut grass, and citrus, a bit oily and a touch a peat on the velvety finish it is a PERFECT apéritif. I bought mine for $65, good price, great malt.

my guess is a Ledaig
