Highland Park Valfather, 47%

Price: 78 Issue: Fall 2020 Reviewer: Gavin Smith Category: Single Malt Scotch

Highland Park suggests this is its peatiest whisky to date. Smoky roasted malt noteson the nose, with singed wood and a slowly developing floral note. Initially, sweeterthan expected on the palate, with vanilla and apricots, then dark peat, licorice, andtreacle toffee notes appear. Black tea and black pepper in the finish, along with a hintof pineapple. £60
