Highland Park-1960-17 year old
Bottled 1977. Imported by Terraretto, Milano. Distilled and Bottled by James Grant & Co., Highland Park Distillery Ltd., Kirkwall, Orkney
Dumpy bottle. Good labelling, missing neck label, torn neck tag. Level: 3.5cm below foil.

"...Mouth: sweet yet nervous, then slightly syrupy (big contrast with the nose) before it gets back to crystallised oranges, kumquats, peat and various kinds of soft spices. Also a tad more honeyed. Extremely satisfying if not the most complex of all old HP’s on the palate. Finish: long, slightly drier (flour) and maltier. Hints of ginger at the aftertaste, also tannins. Comments: of all the old dumpies we could try, maybe this one is the closest to the current range in style. Great whisky anyway." (5 stars-Whiskyfun)
