- Description
- Rating at 0.0 and zero ratings make this Highland Park 18 Year Old 1997 a wild card. Its price of £189.79 puts it in the high-end category, and whether the 'Smokey' charm matches the cost is uncertain. Hard to say without tasting it, but its 'Honey' and 'Old Wood' essence might be a worthwhile discovery.
