Highland Park 17 Year Old - The Dark 70cl Whisky
Customer Rating
“I get some honey on the nose as well as cinnamon and pine. Flavor is extremely full - sweet with a hint of smokiness. Liked this much better than the 18 Viking Pride.”
Seth McKeen
Description
The first release in a series from Highland Park launched in 2017, The Dark is a 17 year old single malt which has been drawn from European oak Sherry-seasoned casks. A fantastic example of how blending Sherried richness with elegant smoky elements can work spectacularly.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Cinnamon sticks, pine and ginger, with layers of chocolate-chip cookie dough and fruitcake bringing sweetness.
Palate
Plump raisins and roasted coffee beans, with light wisps of heather-y smoke appearing later on.
Finish
Mint chocolate ice cream, prunes, almonds and forest floor richness.
