Default Would a speyside SMSW lover like George T. Stagg?

I'm really intrigued to check out GTS bourbon. Can anyone here describe it to me?

You can read John Hansall's reviews by going here.
Click GTS from the drop down menu and then hit
"Search". Results include reviews of seven releases.
Wikipedia can give you the release year and ABV/proof
if one of the reviews suits your tastes.

This is a very odd comparison, BTAC GTS is very heavy, and to compare it to a Spey, or even a Cask Strength Islay is a stretch. That's just my personal opinion though.

I'm a whisky lover. Speyside, Islay, Irish, Canadian, Japanese. All great.
I hate bourbon. I find it sickeningly sweet. And yes, I have tried many different bourbons while out and about.
So I would say no.
