Thoughts? Worth the value? ($255).

I tried a few glasses during a business trip to Hong Kong. All I remember is intense coffee going down with a lot of spice in the finish. It was a very unique whiskey and I loved every sip.
I picked up a bottle at the distillery when I was visiting Inverness. What they told me is that they actually stop production of all other bottlings during the malting of Signet. They also put 35+ year old Glenmorangie stock into the Signet.
So I thought it was worth the price, but I would highly suggest you try a glass of it before you commit to a full bottle.
On a side note, one of my friends picked up a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Cask Edition 55.8% ABV. It was a bargain at the Taiwan Duty free for $265CAD. I'm going to save it for a special occasion... though its very tempting to try it side by side with the regular blue label.
