Highland from the First Cask Series

Up to 40 malt and grain whiskies are matured in oak casks for a minimum of 8 years

but cork and capsule in excellent condition

There’s also a leafy freshness about it

bold and nervous – quite hot

Flavors of currants with juicy dark fruit and spicy cedar end with a rounded

say salted candle wax

with hints of nuts and cinnamon

with the same caramel and liquorice

founder of the Ritz Hotel because it was a "grand" liqueur

a rich pear-peach liqueur density and subdued planty notes

Nose: Nice peat with some burnt wood notes
