Date Tasted:
6/18/2020

Amber color. Aromas of sweet pineapple, golden honey, ripe cherry, white pepper, tea with cream, and ginger with a silky, crisp, dry light-to-medium body and a warming, appealing, medium-long marigold, dried herbs, toasted coconut doughnut, candied almonds, and cinnamon toast finish. A rich, slightly sherried Highland Single Malt that satisfies.

About
Highland Single Malt Scotch
The Highlands consist of the portion of Scotland north of a line from Dundee on the North Sea coast in the east to Greenock on the Irish Sea in the west. Highland malt whiskies cover a broad spectrum of styles. They are generally aromatic, smooth and medium bodied, with palates that range from lushly complex to floral delicacy. The subregions of the Highlands include Speyside; the North, East and West Highlands.
