Reviewed August 22, 2019Enjoyable, very drinkable neat. Not smoky not peaty. A bit of oak, tiny bit of sweetness. Not terribly complex but that is a good thing -

Reviewed October 15, 2018 (edited October 17, 2018)'The folly of one man is the fortune of another', they say. At 45 €, this bottle of 30-year-old Highland Queen was an unbelievable bargain. With a malt content of over 75%, Tullibardine seems to be the main contributor. Oranges, tinned peaches, toffee and a light 'sherry overcoat' define the nose, with notes of banana and nutmeg hiding in the back. The age shows on the palate: fruity, spicy and aromatic flavors take turns, all very balanced and with a surprisingly long and satisfying finish. Forget about 'smooth' - this blend has depth and a real personality! RATING: 4.0/5.0 stars ≙ 87 pts → FIRST-CLASS45.0 EUR per Bottle
