“Rich and beautifully balanced, deep and aromatic, and infused with a delicate sweetness, this truly exceptional whisky is the product of just 5 refill casks originally laid down before 1979. These casks were brought together in 2008 and filled into first-fill sherry seasoned American oak casks to intensify the flavour over a further 10 years of maturation. Orkney’s unforgiving climate pairs well with our unforgiving demand for the finest quality casks. The refill casks that originally held this whisky are ideal for a long, slow maturation imparting an oaky flavour which doesn’t dominate, while the first-fill sherry seasoned casks in which the whisky completed its maturation, bring a depth of character and nutty, fruit-filled notes of sherry to the flavour.   A very rare whisky for a very rare whisky connoisseur.

Highlands

Highland Park is Scotland’s northernmost whisky distillery, lying just to the North-east of fellow Orcadian, Scapa. Orkney is a rugged, beautiful island and the Highland Park distillery sits on a hillside near Kirkwall. Not far off, are sweeping plains of barley field and the rocky outcrops which protrude ominously from the ground. The sea beats the coast; her salty air and the island’s geology contribute to the rich character of Highland Park single malts. The distillery draws its water from the mineral rich springs to the east of the distillery as well as the Crantit Spring.
