The oldest expression from this range. After maturing for three decades in first-fill sherry casks, it has developed an outstanding balance between sweetness and smokiness. Velvety-textured, rich and complex with intense notes of toffee, sea salt, orange and buttery smoke.
Highland Park Distillery was founded in 1798, making it the sixth oldest distillery in Scotland. Located on the Orkney Islands off the northern tip of Scotland. Although the remote Orkney Islands are at the same latitude as Stockholm, the climate is not so harsh. The thermometer rarely drops below zero and reaches 20°C in summer, an ideal climate for the production of whisky.
