Highland Park Viking Scars 10YO Single Malt 700ml

Highland Park Viking Scars 10YO Single Malt 700ml

• World Whiskies Awards 2018: Category Winner (12 Years and Under).

10-year-old single malt Scotch whisky from the Highland Park distillery on Orkney, presented in the heavily Viking-inspired livery that was launched in 2017. This expression is normally found in mainland Europe, but it seems that some bottles have landed on our shores (presumably on some sort of longboat, considering all the Viking imagery connected to it).

TASTING NOTES:
Nose: Subtle Sherry influence, but balanced by heathery smoke.
Palate: Ginger and waxy orange peel. Earthy peat with another hint of Sherry sweetness buried underneath.

Finish: Sea salt and heather once again. A few herbaceous hints of coriander leaf and crushed black pepper.

Alc: 40%
