The Highland Park is a favourite visit for me, used to visit the Island enroute to Shetland on technical inspection visits to both sites every 6 months.

Luckily one of my colleagues home was on the quayside at Stromness and was a first in last out for a cuppa and a chat. His eldest Daughter used to run the visitor centre up at Highland so a non driving visit would be arranged and thoroughly enjoyed.

My No1 Daughter insists (resistance is futile) that I have an annual pilgrimage to the Whisky Shop in Lakeside to chose a couple of bottles of something really special and they are very generous with their sampling once they establish you as purchaser.

We tie the visit in with another family engagement normally, I tasted a Japanese sampler here once and it smelt like TCP but the taste was the best ever, I took a small medicine bottle of it as part of my gift and wished I had taken a bottle it was a stunner. When I return I'll get the name of it.

So many good malts and so little time and money.
