Svein comes from Highland Park's Warrior series, which was released for the travel retail market. It's named after a legendary Viking leader known for his fiery temper but also for his boundless hospitality. The whisky is matured predominately in ex-American oak casks, which has resulted in plenty of orange oil, vanilla, caramel and peppery oak, along with plenty of smoke.

Extremely bland, not good at all. Harald is the first in Warrior series that I can like.
Easy drinking. Vanilla, smooth, light orange and excellent mouth feel. 40% alcohol and with the mild flavors it is a quality drink for beginners or long single malt lovers. Good for the price.
Despite being a weakling who can only (in most cases) drink speyside scotches, this one here is complex but inviting and the peet doesn't hit hard or long.
A very fresh and youthful spirit. Bottled at 40 % ABV with no age statement on the package. Definitely sweet, fruity, honeyed aromas but with less complexity and peppery notes found in the HP 12 and HP 18 yr olds. Picked up a 1L bottle at the Duty Free for a very fair price. Enjoying a dram right now with a game of footy! Cheers mates.
A subtle deluge of fruity notes with a delightful infusion of silky tannin from the American Oak! Uk meets North America here. Enjoy this dram but be aware it not Highland Park 12!
