Single Malt
A single cask bottling of 25 year old Highland Park, drawn from a hogshead that was laid down in 1989 and cracked open in 2016 with an outturn of 240 bottles. This was independently bottled by Signatory for La Maison du Whisky's Artist series, and features a rather stylish label designed by Koralie. 240 bottles were produced.
Fresh, complex. The very first nosing is herbaceous (cut hay), fruity (canary melon) and floral (heather). It then moves into more mature (beeswax, leather), spicy (root ginger) and very lightly smoky notes (Havana cigar, twigs). Ethereal and confident, its floral character becomes more developed (lilac, wallflower). With elegance, it lingers with notes of citrus fruit (lemon, grapefruit).
Refined, distinguished. Deliciously honeyed (acacia), the attack on the palate is floral (lily, lily of the valley) and green (fresh grass). The mid-palate takes us to a moor covered in flowering heather, while some black fruits (cherry, blueberry) highlight its deeply fruity character. Notes of agave and coconut lead into a finish that promises to be heady.
Delicate, subtle, nuanced, and, as expected, heady (lily, iris, carnation) and even hot (Cayenne pepper). It then lingers with rich, dessert notes of nougat, praline and date. The retro-nasal olfaction is a gentle wisp of peaty heather. The empty glass is herbaceous (vegetal), floral (freesia), honeyed (lavender) and malty.
Beautiful dram - glad I was able to snag one before it sold out
