Highland Park Silver Seal Whisky 13 Year Old · 1990 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with sunlit gold and coppery highlights.

Nose

Aromas rise with honeyed heather and vanilla, carried by a coastal breeze. Orchard fruits and orange zest unfold around dried apricot, while sherry cask warmth adds almond, fig, and a hint of cocoa. Subtle peat and sea-salt smoke knit the scent to Highland Park’s maritime character.

Palate

Silky and balanced, the palate opens with creamy honey and vanilla mingling with orchard fruit—apricot and pear—before delicate peat smoke threads through, carrying a touch of maritime salt. Sherry-influenced richness adds dark fruit, cocoa, and warm spice. The finish is long and refined, with gentle oak and ember-like smoke lingering.

Finish

Long, warm finish of toasty oak and gentle peat smoke, layered with rich sherry sweetness. Dried fig and raisin mingle with orange zest, a touch of spice and honey, leaving a refined, resinous echo of sea air.
