Whisky

Highland Park 'Saint Magnus' 12yo Limited Edition
Orkney, 55%.
Highland Park Distillery £87 A-

Plenty of sherry, nice sweetness, even some orange, citrus coming through. Theres heather, and a good dose of smoke, making this quite smoky for an HP. Palate is textured, lingering, mouthfeel weighty, classy. The 55% alcohol didn't show, easily masked by the myriad of flavours. Theres something different on each sip. Beautiful scotch, definitely worth the money.
