Has anybody used this yeast and what can you tell me about it? I see it advertised as having "the perfect profile" for bottle conditioned/cask conditioned beers.

Is it a gimmick product?

Fermentis is a very respectable company and would not risk that respect by producing a "gimmick".
Many breweries utilise a yeast with neutral aroma characteristics for secondary fermentation.
