At first blush, this is a less complex and more abrasive version of Highland Park The Dark that has a bit of The Light's mellowness. Beyond that, it has some beautiful fruit with some nice sea spray and a respectable amount of barrel. The flavor is nuanced but also acceptably rich. The fruit is a tad tropical in a fun way. I'd love to drink this, though it is not a truly excellent expression. Some more richness and less mineral would do this drink wonders.the fruit includes mango, papaya, orange, cherry, and passion fruit yet it isn't excessively tropical. I love the flavor here and would be happy to drink it as a staple even though it is t my first choice. The nose is dark fruit and the palate has plenty of that too. There is some nice plum and dried bing cherry flavor that mixes with the delightful amount of coconut and almond. This is a really rich and hedonistic drink. Although it does need some more complexity, it does have the usual scotch smoke and sea spray elements. It's a very hedonistic drink at a great price. The alcohol is q bit much, but this is still very tasty. It competes with Glengoyne 15 to be the heir to Glenmorangie Signet quite successfully. If this were compxified and less dominated by alcohol, this would be a killer drink. The nose has some nice coconut and plums with a bit of a rich leather backing. The palate has a fair amount of tannins with some nice juicy red fruit. It lacks the coastal ruggedness of Johnnie Walker Green, but it has more of a fruity, leathery richness with a bit more spice as well. This is very good, though better drinks can be had in this price range.
