Highland Park 25 Year Old | Orkney Single Malt | 48.1% ABV | Non-Chill Filtered | 70cl
Highland Park stands at the very top of Scotland — on the Orkney archipelago, buffeted by Atlantic winds, with its own heather peat, its own floor maltings, and nearly 230 years of continuous production. Founded in 1798, it produces a style entirely unlike the mainland: gentle peated smoke, honeyed heathery sweetness and maritime salinity all working together. The 25 Year Old is where all those elements fully coalesce.

Tasting Notes

Palate: Rich and layered — honey, smoke, dried fig, raisin, Christmas spice and a warm peaty earthiness building gradually.
Finish: Impressively long. Smoke, honey, dark dried fruit — one of the great finishes in Scotch whisky.
