Forgot to post this when we go back from Tasmania.
The little one is a bought bottle off their peated. The larger one is one I botled myself straight from the cask, so has a nice 68.2% alcohol volume. It's also delicious (there were tasters on the tour).
It'll likely become a family heirloom.

Had some several years ago now, was very nice, smooth, well worth a try if you're keen.

No American liquor site will ship out of their State, let alone the country.

You'll need to find a friend over there, and have them ship it here. But then you run the gaunlet of being ripped off, damaged bottles and getting caught by customs.

I've currently got another set sitting in customs at the moment waiting for them to send me my bill.
