Serge Valentin (www.whiskyfun.com) gibt diesem alten Highland Park herrausragende 91 Punkte und schreibt:
Let me say it again: there are true gems in this series.
Colour: Amber gold.
Nose: a classic old-metal note emerges (think old pennies) before quickly shifting to meaty elements like Parma ham, fermenting fruits such as prunes, and a mix of damp earth and spent coffee grounds, with a touch of burnt pinewood. This one feels quite evolved so far.
Mouth: and here it is - everything unfolds on the palate. Splendid dark figs and Corinthian raisins, fir honey (a dozen kilos - we love that), mint honey (ever tried it?), followed by Jaffa cakes, pistachio gianduja (enough to tempt a saint), and a very subtle smokiness with earthy undertones, even a hint of glue or varnish. A whole extra dimension, truly. Finish: simply superb. More dark chocolate, orange marmalade, Jaffa cakes, and even a drop of smoky pepper liqueur - if such a thing existed. One must bow with respect.
Comments: it’s all about the palate with this 30-year-old beauty, give or take. SGP:662 – 91 points.
