References: highlandparkwhisky
Spirits are known for their uncanny ability to warm drinkers up, and while that may or may not be a mythical perception, 'The Dark' from Highland Park Whisky leans into the idea. The limited edition, newly released single-malt scotch was crafted to celebrate the cold months of the year, when people retire to the indoors to spend time among family and friends.
The Dark has a rich, wintry combination of flavor notes, including dried fruits, cinnamon, toasted almonds, cedar wood, fruitcake and light peat smoke, making it "the perfect ode to a warm and cozy winter solstice evening", according to the distiller. Highland Park Whisky's newest scotch is a special release, with only 28,000 bottles worldwide and just 4,560 available in the US.
