Light rich amber color. Aromas of spiced dried dates, rancio and candied walnut, old cigar smoke hanging in the rafters of an old British lounge filled with fine leather and burnished walnut and oak, and candied apple bacon with a full body and a long spiced dates, roasted walnut, cigar box, and slightly burnt and spiced toffee finish. Rich wine casks and excellent age are required for a Single Malt of this depth, complexity, and quality; a special dram to be savored with friends.

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.
