Highland Park 40

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 43.8%

Score: 94 Points

This whisky acts like one many years younger…with a vibrant nose of smoky dark chocolate and subtle hints of seaweed and citrus notes. Tasting it brings out black pepper and a lingering saltiness with a touch of citrus and lingering wood smoke that leads to a salty finish with a hint of lime on the tip of the tongue.
