80
- Nose
- Fresh toast, spread with Nutella.
- Palate
- Firm, smooth. Sweet, sherryish. Juicy oak. Salt.
- Finish
- Salt. Wind-blown heather.
- Comment
- I like the richness but lacks the balance, roundness and complexity of a great Highland Park.
87
- Nose
- Lashings of sweet honey and nectar and some drier heather and oak. Sublime.
- Palate
- Rich in toffee apples, melt-in-the-mouth malt.
- Finish
- Long, Slightly waxy but big oak pressure.
- Comment
- One of the least smoky renditions you are likely to find, compensated by the honey presence.
