Highland Park 12 year old Orkney Single Malt Scotch Whisky 40% 70c
Highland Park Distillery
Made in Orkney and matured in hand selected first-filled sherry seasoned American oak casks to deliver subtle flavours of vanilla, with re-fill casks and sherry seasoned European oak casks for exceptional smoothness.
Orkney is where the North Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean. The salt laden winds sculpt the coastlines where they have mile after mile of peat carpets covering the moorland with the vast skies above.
At Highland Park they smoke their barley over the peat, which is cut responsibly and sparingly from Hobbister Moor. Rich in heather it burns slowly in the kiln, creating floral aromas that give Highland Park its uniquely light smoky sweetness.
