Jonnie Walker A Song of Ice Question

JW's ASOI and ASOF dropped to 19.99 recently on OH Last Call. I grabbed one each of the Ice and Fire because, well, even though I don't have a deep love for blended scotch I'll have a go at a JW for $20.

I can't say that they were a bad choice at that price point, but I would have felt less so at full retail (I'd rather have a single Elijah Craig bottle proof than both if these together).

A Song of Fire has more flavor and presence than ASOI. Comparatively I'd give it +.5 over the direwolf based on presence.

A Song of Ice is.... the perfect bedtime scotch. There's nothing great to say about this scotch. I have zero complaints about this scotch. It is undeniably Scotch and has nothing to recommend or fault itself.

.... I kinda love that.

I can't recommend it for anything other than the fact clearance prices but for the VERY specific "nightstand dram" case I want to find other go to choices.

What are yours?
