Single Malt
Scotland
Sherry
A 24-year-old Highland Park finished for over three months in a tiny, specially rebuilt, fresh, first-fill 50-litre Pedro Ximénez sherry cask! The small size of the cask creates greater interaction in a shorter space of time, meaning that this malt has taken on plenty of rich sherried goodness. Enough, in fact, to call itself Darkness!
Floral at first, heather and violet, before you're engulfed by the Darkness! Chocolate raisins, Campino, red lace liquorice and prunes. Chocolatey scorched earth.
Orange peel entry before thick, chewy red toffee apple and flaky chocolate.
Flourless cocoa cake, oak and toffee pennies.
Woah. It's going to take a while to adjust to the light after that!
