Show Notes:

 Highland Park 12 year old Single Malt Scotch

I have discussed one of my favorite single malt scotches – Highland Park 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch before.  I really love that scotch.  Today I tried for the first time their 12 year old scotch.  This too is a really great scotch.  But I must admit I like the 18 year old a little better.

Color: Golden Amber
Nose: Heather, Smokiness
Palate: Smokey, Sweetness, Smooth
Finish: Heathery, Slight Smoke

I think you will like this Scotch.

Show Notes:

Glen Moray Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky

The Gen Moray distillery began as a brewery in 1831.  In 1897 it was converted to a distillery and has be producing Scotch ever since.  Located in Elgin on the Lossie river, Gen Moray has been producing a smooth well rounded Scotch in bourbon barrels. 

On the bottle I got as a gift there is no age given.  It is just labeled as Fine and Rare.  The container states it is a Pure Malt.  That could be a mixed scotch from different distilleries.  And the bottle comes with a screw top.

Color:  Light golden
Nose:  Light, dry, grassy
Taste:  Smooth, warm
Finish:  Long, smooth
