Disapppinting. Oxidation, smoky dark notes, thin. There was some nice roastiness there and the tree is barrel character, but not especially highland park

Junction Road store Aromas are lots of malt, toffee, oak, whiskey and a little molasses. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose. They start out slightly tart with very soft carbonation. Add in some coffee and lots of cocoa. Just right bitterness. Very smooth. Mildly sweet finish. Interesting.

On cask at Teuchters. Appearance - golden amber and clear. Foamy white head. Nose - lemon and fudge, possibly something grassy. Taste - mainly fudge, some candied lemon. Palate - medium bodied and quite sweet. Overall - OK.
