I was lucky enough to get a bottle and I have to say that it's absolutely amazing. I've never had the Wray & Nephew 17 year but I understand it's the same recipe. It's funky, fruity, dry, with a touch of wood with none of the notes overpowering the other. It's truly exceptional!

Can you compare it to the Appleton 30 year?  I brought two bottle back from Anguilla.  Joy has just sold out.

I haven't been able to find or taste the 30 year but I have the 21 year. I find the 17 year Legend to have much more depth and complexity than the 21 year with a little less wood also. 

How is the 30 year?

the 30 is a treat.  oak forward, but smoother and silky.  tons of flavor without being so hot.  I have the other bottle up for sale.  I just can't drink them both.
