Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of Scottish fudge and French toast, Corinthian leather, milk chocolate, and cigar tobacco and dried orange zest with a round, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, layered, medium-long finish with touches of honey and orange zest, alpine herbs, chocolate coverage coconut, and vanilla fudge and black tea. Beautiful and complex on the nose as well as the palate, with just a slight burn on the finish; tons of flavors wrapped together that slowly unfold as you keep diving back into this stunning spirit.

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.
