- Description
- Highland Park's 28-year tenure in wood since 1987 has built a complex, mature whisky combining Orkney's heathery peat with the dark fruit, spice, and leather that extended aging develops. At over four decades old, this expression carries considerable depth and a silky texture from its 28 years, though the independent bottling context means cask variation is inherent. A rare vintage for collectors and those celebrating Highland Park's longevity.
