Highland Park 31 yr 750ml The Perfect Fifth Single Malt Scotch Whisky; Special Order 2 Week
| Description: | This single cask malt offers slightly above average peat for Highland Park, heather honey rich with tannins and peat, and a heavy saltiness. The palate is silky, offering a greeting heavy with smoke and lightly oiled barley sugar, and some dark liquorice sweetness, underlined with exotic fruit. The nose is long and smoky, drawn out with teasing spices and molasses, oak and delightfully softened with phenols at the close. The origins of Highland Park are obscured by myth; whether it was the site of Viking descendant Magnus Eunsons illicit still, or built by farmer David Robertson, the distillery was officially founded in 1798. Orcadian peat is composed mainly of sphagnum moss and heather, resulting in a flavour profile very different from that of the mainland, more aromatic and fragrant. This influence is hugely apparent in this archetypal example of the distillerys produce. Vintage 1987 Strength 47.1% Bottled Year 2019 Region Orkney Islands Cask Type Sherry Bottles 185 |
