Keeping Monday at bay a little longer, and whiling away Sunday evening with a dram of HP21, even better at 47.5%. Hope you are all having a great and relaxing Sunday evening? As it's tulip shaped, does this count as a tumbler? #slainte

To sum up: this cements why I love highland park. Very solid base on all the drams here, and I've always loved any HP with that beautiful smokey finish. #pswhisky

Dram 5 P: sel de guerande, vanilla, baked apple pie, coal and steam as if you could taste a steam train passing, lightly honeyed but quite austere. Decent. #pswhisky

Dram 5 and it's the father, the valfather. Amber. Nose: fruity like the syrup in a can of the old timey fruit salad cans we had for desert in the 80's/90's. Green apples, with cinder toffee. Oakey bonfire. #pswhisky

Dram 4 P: really like this. It's got the fine mild smoke I love, and some honey sweetness to back it up. Golden syrup again, and honeycomb. #pswhisky

Dram 3: an usual rioja finish here! Colour gold/amber with just a hint of pink. Nose: fruity! Like a jam sandwich, on milk bread. Red apple. Some golden sweetness. #pswhisky
