    I’m quoting from “Michael Jackson’s Complete Guide to Single
    Malt Scoth” 5th edition.

    “Highland Park is the greatest all-rounder in the world of malt.
    It is definitely in an Island style, but combining all the elements
    of a classic single malt: smokiness (with its own heather-honey accent),
    maltiness, smoothness, roundness, fullness of flavour, and length of finish.”

    To be honest I just picked this book up two weeks ago.
    When you made your statement I decided to look it up.
    I just really liked Highland Park’s taste. :mrgreen:

    One of the reasons I recommend Highland Park is that it is not as peaty as
    say Lagavulin, Ardbeg, or Laphroaig. (I love all three BTW!)
    You have to work your way up to them.
