Highland Park 12 Years 1990's Bottling

Colour: a lighter caramel.

On the nose: it posses that airy nature and the orange is still there but it’s more fruity overall with apples being noticeable. A delicate smokiness. More cereal based now and memories of putty are revived, grapefruit towards the end with mint leaf and chilli flakes.

In the mouth: dense and evocative. Spent tobacco, traces of smoke, red grapes, black olives, chocolate digestives and oats. Oily as well with some treacle elements, charcoal and a rubbery dryness towards the end.
