Den mest prisvärda whiskyn av alla?. Kanske, man får i alla fall enormt mycket för pengarna.

Tasting notes från Malt Maniacs: Officiella tasting notes:

Highland Park 18yo (43%, OB, Bottled +/- 2005
Nose: Raw rhubarb. More fruits after a minute. Sweet tangerines. Almost like 'Southern Comfort Light'. A little malty. Only after tasting it on the palate did I detect (or imagine) a hint of peat in the background.
Taste: Sweet and smooth start, with a suprising peaty kick after a few seconds. Wow, I didn't expect that... Lovely long finish; excellent mouth feel. Quite hot, so I imagine this is an overproof malt. Medicinal finish.
Score: 86 points - given the medicinal finish I might have identified it as a Laphroaig in a blind test. There's definitely a hint of something medicinal on the palate, especially in the finish.

Colour: Natural colour, burnished gold, clear and bright.
Aroma: Rich, mature oak, top note of aromatic smoke.
Taste: Rich, full flavour; honey and peat.
Finish: Soft, round and long.
