Delicious! Malt candy in a bottle!

one of the best Highlands I've ever tasted. the nose is vanilla, toffee, and peach. draws you in right away. tastes like melted vanilla ice cream, raisins, and pudding. a puff of smoke keeps you balanced. bites just enough at the end. well balanced, deep, rich, finish. I'd buy a bottle of this again to keep around for special occasions, or a nightly sipper in the rotation.

fruity, sweet, vanilla, rich nose: peaches, oranges, vanilla. later, honey and a slight oak. palate: rich, viscous. fruity and sweet on the attack. later in the sip, I taste grapes and the sherry influence. then it turns to spice. finish: spice and a hint of leather and oak. I would not classify this as an oaky whiskey, though I'm getting hints of it.

Nice caramelized sherry and very similar in quality to the dalmore 18

Nose: Sherry not heavy, dried orange peel, orange chocolate, apricot, citrus Palate: Orange peel, orange marmalade, dry oak Finish: Smooth short to medium, sweet oak, sherry, touch of spice Good scotch but a little over priced at 150
