Named “Best Spirit in the World” by F. Paul Pacult (Spirit Journal: The Independent Guide to Distilled Spirits, Wine and Beer, 2005), this is rich and spicy with Highland Park’s calling cards of peat, heather, honey, and smokiness. One of the world’s great whisky experiences, this is a smooth and flavour-packed single malt built for serious enjoyment. |
