Actually Highland Park isn't a Speyside, it's an Island malt, from Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands off the North coast of Scotland.

Hi Nick - you got me

That bottle on the right -- talk about a generic label. Looks like a bottle of medicine from an doctor's office from the 1950s. The name ACME would be right at home on there. tongue.gif

 

I'll bet it's real good stuff, though.

It is.

 

It's all a marketing ploy of course. They do special bottlings, charge more for them and give them a label which makes it look more informal, as if you are getting something illicit.

seeing as this thread has suddenly turned into 'Scotch porn' (which I highly endorse), I suppose I am now forced to contribute:

[left to right]

yes, the (rather small) cabinet wink.gif complete with Talisker dram glass, Macallan ice bucket and Glenlivet Speyside spring water

 

opening the door, we find:

top > Talisker 10 | Talisker 175th Anniversary Edition | Glenfarclas 17

bottom > Macallan Fine Oak 10 | Macallan 18 | Glenmorangie 10

 

oh, but we're far from done... another row sleeps behind the first:

Talisker 1992 Distiller's Edition | Talisker 18 | Glenfarclas 12

Macallan Cask Strength | Glenfiddich Ancient Reserve 18 | Bowmore Single Malt blend

 

 

who's thirsty, then? trink38.gif

Very nice - a fan of the Talisker I see. I've not had a bottle of that for a while.

it's not for everyone, but I've got a special love for that peaty 'wood fire' taste

I got a bottle with a fiver off in my local Bockwinkels last Friday smile.gif

 

In your country, you could try Tesco

7 pints of Guinness, a few Powers 12 and a few Highland Park 12's as well. I feel no pain.

Goodnight.

Good morning!

 

How's that pain level? laugh.gif

Pete, I've just acquired a Highland Park 12 (many recommendations for it)

 

I haven't opened it - what can I expect?
