Highland Park 12 Year

Pleasant hints of toffee and moss, lightly peated, a fantastic mouthfeel, and a delicious yet short finish. This is a great whisky that merits 4 stars.

Nice balance of mild smoke and peat, which comes through later on, and sherry and honey.

Nose - Light fruit, almost sherry-like, salty sweet brined smoked pork shoulder, salted pretels, dried goji berries. Taste - Light peat, salty sweet smoked meat, slightly medicinal, light iodine, goji berries. Like a glass of an oaked chardonnay that has been sitting next to a mild, light bodied cigar. Finish - Leaves a lightly sweet, salt-brine seaweed wrapped smoked pork shoulder, leaving your mouth lightly dry. 83/100

Nice smoky flavor throughout the entire sip. Finishes a bit harsh, with even more smoke.
