Overall Notes

Tasted in blind with ABV info given.Took it for a Highland park distillate, aged around 25 years / 44% ABV (given) / Blend of refill sherry casks (American + European) with some first-fill and refill bourbon casksOverallA symphony in a glass, with notes spread across a broad spectrum yet with no lack of power.
