“Because you can't buy happiness... but you can buy whisky and that's pretty much the same thing”

Reviewing Highland Park Leif Eriksson

By Miguel in Tasting , Highland Park

“Adorable vanilla and toffee aromas on this non age statement whisky from Highland Park”

90
Highland Park Leif Eriksson
Originally released in March 2011, Highland Park Leif Erikson was originally a travel retail exclusive.

In celebration of Erikson's trip to the New World this Highland Park single malt without age statement is made up of ex-bourbon and sherry casks, all made from American oak.

This dram has a gold-like color.

Nose (90): more than average. toffee, floral, malt, vanilla, spices.

Palate (89): smooth. honey, floral, spices, wood, heather, apples.

Finish (90): longer than average. honey, floral, toffee.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Highland Park Leif Eriksson with 90 points over 100.
