Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with honeyed warmth and coppery highlights, a luminous, mature shade.
Nose
Surprisingly delicate and refined, still fresh and distinctively Highland Park, with honey, chocolate and soft smoke.
Palate
Sensationally complex and alluring, with superb balance and wave after wave of flavour, with no single element dominant.
Finish
After a final lift of heather honey sweetness and citrus notes, the smoke drifts back for a last, lingering hurrah.
