The carryon bag is great.

The seal is pretty standard but the bottle does have that "bar pour" spout which means you have to tip it over the glass, inside the tumbler, and then tap the bottle slightly to move the valve ball to start the flow of the dark amber liquid.

I am finding it interesting to read the posts since I first started this thread to get an idea of how this blend is taking off...and how people are reacting to it. Definitely seems to becoming the whisky blend of choice for those of us into single malt Islays. Having finished my glass I can definitely feel the peat aftertaste in my mouth!
