Indie bottler North Star Spirits has introduced the Millennial Range - a series of whiskies exploring the whisky production regions of Scotland and their individual qualities. This is The Highland Star, an 11 year old single malt from an undisclosed distillery, bottled at 50% ABV.
Hay, greengages, a whiff of peat swiftly enveloped by coffee-dipped pastries.
Orange peel, caramel and almond. Still slightly grassy at points. A flinty touch or two here and there.
Grist, apricot and milk chocolate.
