has anyone used `the rare malt` shop. Are they reputable / reliable?

A very rare, very exclusive vintage, the Yamazaki 1984 was matured in
American, European and Japanese Mizunara oak and it was awarded with Gold
at the International Spirits Challenge.

I like my whisky old and my women young!

mmaclean gave this whisky 90 points

The first vintage Suntory Yamazaki offered in the U.S. A portion of this
whisky is aged in Japanese oak. Heavy aroma, with lush sherried fruit
and deep juicy oak, marrying with firmly dry and spicy oak resin (the
Japanese oak influence is obvious). This same profile follows through on
the palate: ripe berried fruit, raisin, blackberry jam, plum spiced
with cinnamon, vanilla spearmint, roasted nuts and gripping leather. All
this, lying on a bed of molasses and toffee. The Japanese oak really
kicks in on the invigoratingly spicy, warm, resinous finish. Quite
elderly in nature, but remains very exciting and dynamic, even with all
the oak.

Remember it\'s maturity that makes whisky great! That\'s why I Love The Glenrothes!
