Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오크니 섬의 청량한 공기와 헤더 피트가 하이랜드 파크 1980의 캐릭터를 처음부터 끝까지 관통한다. 잔에는 짙은 호박빛이 또렷이 깃들어 있고 24년의 시간이 빚어낸 셰리 캐스크의 건자두와 헤더 꿀의 향이 일어난다. 58도의 무게로 입안에서는 다크 초콜릿과 옅은 피트 연기, 그리고 잘 익은 무화과의 단맛이 둥글게 펼쳐진다. 여운에는 헤더와 셰리가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
a deep and unctuous old school sherry, wonderfully textural impressions of leather, saltiness, umami paste, game meats, natural tar and exotic hardwood resins. Hugely scented, weighty and extremely classy stuff! With time these aromas of game meats, treacle and salty dark chocolate become more pronounced and distinctive. Gorgeous nose! With water: mint, eucalyptus, menthol tobacco, cherry scented cough medicines, exotic hardwood resins and lapsing souchong tea. Keeps developing layers of complexity and many tiny wee aromas
restaurant Palate
hugely syrupy arrival. Meaty, perfectly herbal, bitter, salty, rather a lot of salted almonds and toasted walnuts, green walnut liqueur and natural tar resins. Perfectly extractive, perfectly meaty and just brilliantly textural and fat in the mouth. There's also this undercurrent of herbal, resinous peat and syrupy medicines which is textbook old school Highland Park. With water: outstanding! We may have to call the anti-maltoporn brigade (it's been a while, have they changed numbers?), a perfect collision of bitterness, umami, salinity and gorgeous flavours of meats, walnuts, coffees, chocolates and spices
timer Finish
long, herbal, perfectly bitter, saline, spicy, salted Dutch liquorice, natural tar, herbal medicines and more of this resinous HP peat flavour
