Embark on an Orkney odyssey with Highland Park 17 Year Old – 2007 Vintage, Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice (UK-Exclusive Cask #5358).
Distilled in Kirkwall and matured its full term in a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt, this northern island malt melds signature heather-peat smoke with decadent dark-fruit richness. Bottled in June 2025 for the United Kingdom only, the whisky is presented at a formidable 59.9 % ABV, non-chill-filtered and natural in colour. Just 606 bottles showcase maritime brine and gentle peat cloaked in waves of raisin, treacle and polished mahogany—an exemplary expression of the Connoisseurs Choice ethos.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

  • Single first-fill Oloroso butt saturates Highland Park’s floral-peat core with opulent dried fruit, chocolate depth and sweet spice.

  • Non-chill-filtered, natural colour—preserving full body, aroma and authentic deep-ruby hue.

  • Part of Gordon & MacPhail’s revered “Connoisseurs Choice” range—strictly 606 bottles reserved for the UK, ideal for collectors and peat-curious palates.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Billows of heather smoke and sea-spray weave through raisin loaf, dark honey, orange-peel marmalade and a hint of cocoa nibs. Palate: A powerful surge of briny toffee, liquorice root and sweet malt floods the tongue, followed by clove-spiked chocolate, roasted hazelnut and a bright flash of candied citrus zest. Finish: Long, smouldering and gently dry—lingering ember-like peat, sherry-soaked fruitcake and a final flourish of salted caramel.
