Yes it is!!!

Don't buy another drop of anything, until you can afford a bottle of Highland Park 18yo! It's not cheap, at between $85 & $95, but you'll be happy you did!!!

If you get the chance, try the 17yr old sherry cask, it's dynamite. Better than the 21yr Port wood IMHO.

IMO there is no other scotch than can touch the HP 18 at that price point. It is expensive but very much worth every penny. Try it. You won't be disappointed!!!

There is a store by me called Bayway and they buy the cask from the distiller and private label it. Right now they are selling their HP 23 for $79 per bottle. It is unbelievable!!

I really enjoyed the 15y/o Highland Park. I also really enjoy the old standby, Glennfiddich, can't go wrong with the old standby

I have a bottle of HP by Murray McDavid, aged 16 years in sherry and port. It's very nice.

I'd like to try the one you are talking about.

Sigh...so much scotch, so little time (and money ).

Glenmorangie Port Wood Finished is at or near the top of my list, Oban 18 yo. is a fine scotch and another near the top of my list, but the two can't be compared.
