Tasting Notes
Details
A pale golden coloured whiskey with a delicate sweet nose. Vanilla combines with heather honey, pears and red apples with a hint of marzipan. On the palate it is sweet and slightly peppery initially with vanilla butter shortbread, dark chocolate and a wisp of smoke. This finally leads to a long, dry finish with a touch of smoke and oak.

Highland Park Single Malt Whiskey
Highland Park Distillery is the most northerly malt whiskey distillery in Scotland and thus the closest Scottish distillery to the Arctic Circle. Highland Park was established on the periphery of Kirkwall in the Mainland of Orkney in 1825-26 by Robert Borwick, a merchant and straw plaiter in Kirkwall, and John Robertson who owned the land previously known as Rosebank but by 1825 known as Highland Park. Whiskey had been distilled illicitly in the vicinity of the Parks of Rosebank by Magnus Eunson least as far back as 1798. Highland Park 12 Year Old, 18 Year Old and 21 Year Old are popular releases.
