My bottle has been open since July 13. It has been in my glass for 30 minutes and ready to go. This is a wonderful Whisky which is worth the hype.
The nose tells you this is a complex dram. Oak, honey, malt, grassy, dusty old books, a waft of smoke and apple peel.
This is creamy and smooth. Slight salt, apples, smokey, peat and orange peel.
The finish is medium long. It is peppery and had leaves a warming spicy tingle on the gums.
For the money it's wonderful. It isn't challenging. It's complex but gives itself p you easily which makes it very easy to drink while offering more and more profiles if you look for them.
Lovely!
Find where to buy Highland Park whisky
i bought this bottle for £58 in July 13. Now the cheapest I can see it for is about £85, that's nearly a 50% increase in 18 months. This really is a terrific bottle but the prices are getting silly.
