Heather (or heather honey) is one of the most common tasting notes in Highland Park whisky. The island of Orkney has no trees so the local peat has abundant heather at its base. It's no surprise the distillery named an expression after it.This new packaging is fairly modest and refreshing.

There's no age statement but we've heard Highland Park Heather ages for around 11 years.Let's see how this compares to the Cask Strength release I had a couple of months ago.

Why am I posting this now instead of … The post Shelter Point Distillery – Vancouver Island, BC appeared first on Toronto Whisky Society .
