Back when we did audio only podcasts, we did a two-part episode on scotch. For our first serious exposure to this type of whiskey we were fortunate enough to have an experienced guide, Fitz, to help us navigate through 10 different expressions of the golden elixir. Not only did he share his knowledge he also supplied all ten of the scotches we tried. We speak of those podcasts often and look back on them quite fondly. One of the more memorable ones we tried was the Highland Park 12 Year which quickly became a favorite of Andrew’s. He even recently received a bottle of it as a birthday present, which may have prompted his interest in the beverage we will be sharing with you on this episode. For this show we will be trying the Highland Park Cask Strength Release No. 1. Andrew spotted this on a recent trip to California and he couldn’t resist grabbing a bottle. To get our palates ready for the cask strength we had a taste of the Highland Park 12 year, which was even better than we remembered. What did we think? What do you think?
