Words of Whisky (86)

Color: Old gold

Nose
Very fresh and soft with light peat smoke and herbs. A subtle sweetness with sugar plums, honey and cotton candy make for a pleasant (albeit unspectacular) nose.

Taste
Smooth with a more noticeable peat and smoke influence. A little spicy and bitter, but still elegant. Some tobacco, leather and granola, but also a sweeter side with dates and orange jam.

Finish
Medium and smoke with a hint of rubber (sulphur) in the end.

Comments
A pleasant whisky with enough depth to stay interesting for a while.

BOW (87)

A slight increase in the proportion of first-fill European oak Sherry casks underlines the balance between sweetness and smoke for which Highland Park is renowned by whisky enthusiasts the world over. In essence, this expression is a bridge between 18 year old (known to many as The Best Spirit in the World thanks to the Spirit Journal whisky writer F. Paul Pacult) and 21 year old (World’s Best Single Malt, World Whisky Awards 2009). The light green tones on the packaging represent Orkney’s fertile farmland.
