Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep dark amber with mahogany-rosewood depth; incredibly rich and viscous
Nose
Awe-inspiring depth — ancient heather honey, deeply softened peat smoke, concentrated dried fruit (prune, fig, date), bitter chocolate, old leather, and museum-quality oak. Sandalwood incense, beeswax, dried heather, and the faintest maritime whisper. Three decades have transformed the smoke into something almost spiritual
Palate
Transcendently rich and complex. Ancient heather honey, whisper-soft peat smoke, concentrated prune and fig compote, bitter chocolate, and espresso. Old leather, beeswax, and antique sandalwood. Oak tannins from three decades are perfectly harmonized — firm, silky, and utterly integrated. The balance between sweet honey, softened smoke, and deep fruit is miraculous. Extraordinarily full body
Finish
Seemingly endless finish. Ancient heather honey and spiritual peat smoke evolve through dried fruit, bitter chocolate, old leather, and antique wood. The finish drifts from sweetness to smoke to a final maritime whisper, lingering for minutes. A rare and profound Highland Park experience
