"Exotic fruit, under-ripe crushed ground cherry and some honey - what else? Sensual delivery that would be recognized and wholly appreciated by fans of Highland Park thanks to the busy honey and semi-hidden waves of smoke; a few oaky touches appear early but enhance in a toasty rather than life-threatening way; the spices rave early on then settle; a gentlemanly exit with its honeyed head held high to the last; no oaky screaming and shouting, just a few bitter-sweet farewells; a much improved dram which is far truer to the Aberfeldy style than earlier bottlings. Very high class malt which confidently underlines this distillery's excellence." Jim Murray, "Whisky Bible" 91 points
