- Description
- Highland Park's 19-year-old bottling from the 1980s represents the distillery in a bygone era, presented in the dumpy bottles originally destined for the Italian market and offering a glimpse into how the distillery expressed itself four decades ago. The 43% abv and extended maturation in this vintage bottling likely deliver the distillery's signature balance of heather-honey sweetness and gentle peat smoke. A collectible piece for those drawn to Highland Park's heritage and vintage bottlings.
