DESCRIPTION

A lightly peated permanent expression from the Highland Park distillery on Orkney, now presented in redesigned packaging that moves on from the brand's previous Viking-inspired look in favour of a cleaner design drawn from Orkney's landscape, rolled out in late-2024. Matured in a combination of first-fill and refill sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks for 15 years. Naturally coloured and bottled at 44%. (Bottle size 750ml)

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Fresh, floral and spicy. Heather honey, crème brûlée, citrus zest and gentle peat smoke.

Palate: Warm vanilla, pineapple and zesty citrus, with baked sponge cake, honey and aromatic smoke.

Finish: Mellow, with delicate vanilla, toasty spice and a gentle hit of aromatic smoke from Orkney heathered peat.

A subtle delicacy

"I haven't tried a bottle under the old branding, so I cannot comment on the difference between the older and newer version. However, based on my first encounter and impressions, I would say that it still holds up somewhat to its reputation as a good, well-rounded single malt. Nothing is over the top, and the small amount of gentle heather peat mixes in well with the soft sweetness and honey notes. If there is anyone with a particularly sensitive palate and sense of smell who don't want to be overwhelmed by the phenolic peatiness of an extremely smoky whisky, then it would do them good to start with this bottling."

Perfect for a Hot Toddy

"Like sucking down honey from the jar. There's some peat smoke in there, but barely. Sometimes I think I get something else, maybe a general oak note, or maybe just organic bits in the honey."
