40% HP 21yo??

[Sherried Malt]

Has anyone tried the 40% version of the Highland Park 21yo yet? Conventional wisdom would seem to indicate that the 47.5% version is clearly superior, but is that really the case? Is the difference really substantial or are we splitting hairs here?

Would love to hear any and all comments.

Thanks in advance!

It´s been available for a while at fx Copenhagen airport (for NON-EU travellers)
Bottles of both strengths are mixed together so have to pay attention to what version you get.
Since I travelled inside EU I was not allowed to buy either one.

(no differentation apart from the abv marking - so same price wichever version you buy - approx 80€ if I remember correctly)

Hmm, sounds like a perfect opportunity. Get all the 47.5% you want and then get a 40% for comparison purposes, all at the same time. Very convenient!

Might be time to plan a trip out of the EU...
