"The hallmark of Highland Park production, an all-pervading obsession with quality and attention to detail, can be discerned in the distinctive aromatic, full-bodied floral sweetness of the whisky. The glory of Highland Park lies in its remarkable balance; this is as evident in the 1971 as in all other expressions." - Max McFarlane.

Golden Amber.

Rich, vibrant and extremely well balanced. Fruit cake with raisins, cherry and a hint of almond, fruity sherry notes with a touch of caramel, faint spicy smokiness, with hints of black tea.

Wonderfully long strong feel, chocolate, mango, marzipan and cloves are discovered as the spirit opens up.

Finish

Smooth, long and lingering, mouth-watering, spicy with a rich plum aftertaste.

Highland Park
(HY-land PARK) Highland Park was founded in Kirkwall in 1798, with the distillery tracing its start to Magnus Eunson, who obtained his first whisky-making licence that year. It remains one of Orkney’s best-known distilleries, and the island setting is central to the whisky’s identity, from the local peat to the maritime climate that shapes maturation.
