2017 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Highland Park 25 Years Old Orkney Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Scotland), 45.7% abv, $750.00

97
Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

In an epic battle of sherry butt versus peat smoke, the luscious barrel notes of dried fruit and acacia honey narrowly win. The delicate smoke reappears on the palate and nicely balances the barrage of decadent barrel flavors. A truly transcendent whiskey with complexity and body to spare.
