Description

Deep and intensely fruity but effortlessly smooth, Highland Park 18 is one of the most highly awarded (and dearly beloved) whisky, and for good reason. With a natural glowing amber colour straight from the cask, it’s a multi-layered whisky with many stories to tell—just like the people who make it.

The satisfying depth of the 18 year old comes from a higher proportion of whiskies matured in first-fill, sherry-seasoned European oak casks, which deliver intense notes of fruit and spice that linger on the palate. The flavours are rounded out with the addition of sherry-seasoned American oak casks and refill casks, resulting in a whisky that’s as balanced as it is complex.

The flavour

A fan favourite for a reason. Rich, fruity, caramelised sweetness on the nose, followed by finely balanced notes of orange zest, dark chocolate and aromatic smoke from the Orkney heathered peat on the palate. The finish is lingering, sweet and spicy with slightly nutty notes.
