@jupiz - I'm not well versed in talking about whisky's but I'd say they're both off to decent starts but neither have particularly deep/complex flavors!
Torabhaig was a really nice place to visit, they had obviously put a lot of effort into making the place look like a classic distillery. The whisky itself I'd say has a nice initial flavor but you can tell it's young as that quickly makes way to a more just alcohol flavor - you can see where they're trying to go with it though so by the time they've gotten up to 10yr+ it's going to be good stuff.
Raasay was another nice set-up but more modern looking. The whisky is smoother with more fruit/sweetness and less peat than the Torbhaig.
Fair enough, we’ll I look forward to trying them in the future then. Tend to find the fruiter ones like Bimber and Cotswolds have actually been pretty damn good at 3.
@withered_preacher - that's still a work in progress!
