Highland Park S.H Jones Single Cask Whisky 18 Year Old · 1978 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with luminous copper-gold highlights and a touch of mahogany at the rim.

Nose

Honeyed malt with a whisper of peat, wrapped in lush sherry. Dried fig and orange zest rise with vanilla and toasted almond, while a saline sea-breeze and warm oak spice linger in a refined, inviting aroma.

Palate

A velvety, full-bodied elegance where sweet peat and maritime salt envelope sherry-soaked fruit—prune, fig and raisin—with orange zest. Dark chocolate, toffee and spice emerge, nutmeg and cinnamon weaving through oak. The peat stays refined, giving smoke and resin, while a light saline lift keeps it buoyant. Long finish of dried fruit, cocoa and gentle peat, warmly drying the palate.

Finish

Long and refined, this finish unfolds with rich sherry fruit, dark chocolate and toasted oak, a whisper of peat and coastal salt keeping it poised. Spices emerge—cinnamon, nutmeg—before a warm, resinous glow lingers, inviting the next sip.
