Duncan Taylor Octave Premium 23 year old Highland Park 1999 (Cask 5029309), 54.2%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2023 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
Rich and nutty, the nose is awash with sherry fruit, walnut, peat stacks, new leather, peppercorn, dunnage floors, and treacle toffee under a canopy of fragrant smoke. Sweet marmalade, walnut, fresh plum, sultana, and clove, rounding out with baked apricot, cherry coulis, and background peat smoke on the palate. If you love the classic Highland Park character, this aged single cask expression could be just what you’re looking for.
