Review #938 (2023)
This was an exclusive to Amazon and bottled in 2018. It’s a tribute to communities – particular small communities (you see where it’s going, with the name Tribe?). Candy with a bit of peat in the smell?! Heathery vanilla with a fair bit of citrusy notes…
The peat is more noticeable in the taste. Sweet – honey and vanilla – with a citrusy touch (not as much as in the smell). The finish is sweet and fresh. Peppery orange marmalade?
A little bit different style of Highland Park (still with the Highland Park character). I’m not a big fan, but I’m sure this is made to be an easy drinker, and not a luxury single malt, which they succeeded with. I will give this 82/100 (20/21/21/20).
