Distilled in 1982 and bottled after 40 years of maturation, this spectacular old Highland Park is an exceptional example of the most famous whisky from the Orkney's in Scotland. Filled from a refill sherry puncheon, this is a rich and heavy profile not commonly seen in distillery expressions. Stewed raisins infuse with notes of fragrant apple and cigar boxes, with smooth toasted nuts and dark cherry melded with brown sugar. A festive spicyness leads to orange peel and a gentle touch of mint. The heavy wood influence builds with coffee beans, medjool dates and deliciate peat smoke lacing the finish.
