Highland Whisky Nectar

Highland Nectar is a sumptuous Scotch whisky liqueur that celebrates the flavours of drams from the Scottish Highlands. Crafted by Elixir Distillers, it marries five-year-old Scotch whisky with botanicals including ginger, cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg, vanilla and bitter orange, for a golden liquid that is rich, aromatic and fruity. Enjoy Highland Nectar neat or over ice as an after-dinner sipper, mix it with soda water for a sweet, refreshing Highball or try it in a classic cocktail such as a Bobby Burns.

• NOSE

  Toffee leads, sequeing into citrus and spice. The toffee becomes cinder toffee as vanilla builds, backed up by green, leafy herbal notes of tarragon. The toffee notes morph into spiced spongecake batter, stirred through with sultanas and extra brown sugar. Soft heather honey notes hide underneath everything.

• PALATE

  Rich and thick, with an initial burst of spicy anise balanced by creamy vanilla toffee. The spice sits in the middle, a slowly dissolving aniseed ball, with cinder toffee and charred hints joined by bitter lemon rind and sweet candied lemon.

• FINISH

  Baking spice lingers along with soft toffee notes.
