Highland Park Duncan Taylor Rare Auld Single Cask #8886 Whisky 38 Year Old · 1967 Vintage

Colour

Deep burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a hint of mahogany at the rim, a warm, wine-dark glow in the glass.

Nose

Opulent, sherried bouquet of dried fig, raisin and date, melted into orange marmalade with cocoa nibs. Rich toffee and toasted almond ride atop polished oak. Subtle maritime brine and a whisper of peat smoke thread through, crowned by honeyed heather and a kiss of spice.

Palate

Silky, mouth-coating and richly sherried, this Highland Park unfolds with fig, raisin and orange marmalade. Subtle peat lends a poised maritime edge, while polished oak, dark chocolate and honeyed spice deepen on the palate. A touch of salted caramel and leather threads through, leading to a long, velvety finish with refined warmth and quiet smoke.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish with a whisper of heather and peat, evolving into sweet dried fruit, fig and orange zest, then mellow oak and spice that linger—a polished, dignified farewell with a trace of maritime salt.
