ola dubh 12
8% ABV | BARREL-AGED
Ola Dubh 12 pours black with a modest spattered head that reduces slowly, leaving behind textbook lacing. The aroma is delicious; smoky Worcestershire sauce, leather, iodine and grilled steak. Flavours of smoky-sweet malts, roasted peat, coffee beans and a well-bittered finish. Overall this is a rather exotic brew with a defined barrel influence. It’s refined rather than over the top and very delicious indeed.
ola dubh 16
8% ABV | BARREL-AGED
Like the others, Ola Dubh 16 pours out jet black, with a small mocha- coloured head. There’s plenty to enjoy on the nose which is a classy blend
of whisky, sweet roasted malts, earthy woodland and vanilla. The flavour is rich; loaded with sweet-roasted dark malts and coffee. And just at the finish there are nice, smoky peat hints with just a touch more bourbon than the 12.
ola dubh 18
8% ABV | BARREL-AGED
The initial whisky hit
on the nose gives way to more delicate aromas of chocolate, fruity coffee grounds and hints of woodland berries. The flavour is a very appetising blend of sweet malts, vanilla, oak and tobacco. It has undertones of raisins and other dark, dried fruits; a delicious testament to Highland Park’s bias towards sherry casks.
