Peated or sherry?
Complex. The Orkney peat beating you silly, while the honey and biscuit malted tones in the mid palette are making it up to you. Long, fire breathing finish. I Let mine open with a few drops of water. — 11 years ago
If I could sum up Highland Park 30 with emojis it would be: 😬 🐸 😍 48% alcohol? Zero burn. Fresh caramel. Hint of smoke. No other scotch I've had in my lifetime compares. — 11 years ago
I don’t often post whisky but then I do, it’s because they’re pretty special. This is no exception. A rather unusual barrel pick, this 14-year Highland Park was aged in what appears to be a sherry cask (color, aroma, flavor) and bottled at cask strength. Notes of cola, coffee, potpourri, smoke and pepper with a rich, fuller body. I called it the Dr. Pepper of Scotch. The finish is forever long. Sadly, I’ll probably never get to experience this again. — 4 years ago
This is a great Viking style brew. You know, compared to the other Viking style brews I've had..... — 10 years ago
Now this is a great way to wind down a night. Silvano Samaroli aged this rum - which is a blend of casks from many islands from Barbados to Martinique to Fiji and Cuba - in Scotland. It's rare and delicious. — 11 years ago
Again what a treat. . Exotic tasting!

The “Orkneyinga” was a 2018 limited release to help raise money to protect historic sites on the island. It’s basically a blend of ex-Sherry, American and European oak barrels aged for a minimum of 12 years. Notes of light peat, honey comb, flowers, and cashews. The finish is long and awesome. About 5000 bottles were produced. — 2 years ago
A wonderful gift from Chris and Leslie’s trip to Scotland. Perfect balance of sweet and dry. — 8 years ago
Finally found Odin and it does not disappoint. Probably the best of the Valhalla collection slightly ahead of Freya. — 10 years ago

Northern Light has a citrus flavours with a hint of fresh bread, which is giving way to spice, citrus and apricot happiness. It has a delicious crisp hop character without being overly aggressive. Very refreshing. — 3 days ago
