"Cedar, forest floor. French toast accompanied by very tannic black tea. Reminds me of amber resin."

there must be something wrong with me - my taste buds  just don't stretch to cedar, forest floor, tea and amber resin more or less simultaneously!

does yours?

THere are so many of these things around now - I don't know if I have sent this one in before...






      THE WORLD'S BEST SINGLE MALT WHISKY 
      HIGHLAND PARK 21 YEARS OLD

                                                       "An irresistible mix of dark grungey smoke and light sweet fruit. If you could barbecue a tin of Del Monte exotic fruits this is what it would taste like. Stunning."
      Dominic Roskrow
      "Cedar, forest floor. French toast accompanied by very tannic black tea. Reminds me of amber resin."
      Liza Weisstuch
      "The mouth bathes in a rich, chocolaty sweetness, then puckers up with the very drying tannic oak. A drop of water turns it into something delightful – juicy and nicely tingling with a long finish."
      Robin Laing
      "Big, fruity nose, dried fruits, dried herbs; waxy mouthfeel, sweet taste, crystalline sugar; mouth-cooling. A cracker!"
      Charles MacLean
      "Creamy, very peppery with background smokiness. Warming with harmonious balance of sweet fruit, malt, pepper and cream. Sublime whisky."
      Davin de Kergommeaux
      "Like an old flowery perfume, some honey sweetness; nice cedarwood notes, good aftershock of some decent smoke. Very nice dram."
      Bernhard Schafer
      "Full body high octane powerhouse. Oily mouth coating flavour of salt and nuts, iodine leading into minty freshness."
      LeNell
      "Heather and sea air on the nose. Smoky, peaty top notes. Underlying elements of mint, leather, vanilla."
      William Dowd
      "Sun heated pebbles. A marine and spicy breeze. Hints of soot, Oysters with a dash of Tabasco. Powerful, uncompromising, wild. Superb."
      Martine Nouet
