I got it on special for 35 euros but now it is over 50 euros so I passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverickdrinker Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 crushed a bottle of the 1998 in Havana in November. Still have 1 additional bottle of 1998 and 2 bottles of 1990 HP to crack open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcedCanuck Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I've tried the 18 and the 25 and loved them both! HP is my fav scotch at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjaminbbush Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I found all of these video reviews a couple of weeks ago. They impressed me enough to want to try to Learn more about scotch. So now while I am on my cigar education journey I find myself ready to start my scotch journey! (as my wide rolls her eyes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gooie Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Nice thread revival Whoever wrote that comment about Octomore should have his taste buds examined though - 140ppm of peat! Just suck on a piece of charcoal for the same effect. $140 for a 5 year-old single malt saved I kid, I kid! Octomore is one of my all time fav's. Not a good choice with a cigar though as it will overpower pretty much anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Had the 18 year old at a Scotch tasting recently. Definately worth the money. Can't speak for the 21, 25, 30, 40, or 50 year olds! The 18 YO is my choice. Highland Park is like Macallan in that they age their scotch in Sherry refill casks-- so keep that in mind before spending the $ if you are not into sherried Scotch's...
