Light rich amber color. Aromas of walnut, leather, and rancio, candy roasted walnuts, spiced dried Sultana dates, and dried papaya with a fat body and a very long candied and spiced walnuts and pecans, leather and dried dates, toffee and figgy pudding, and baked apple and cinnamon finish. There is some serious age here as well as some delightful wine casks; complex and satisfying, this is an excellent cigar Scotch for someone who wants to pair a lighter wrap cigar with something less smoky but that still carries some weight.

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.
