Highland Park 12 Year Old Scotch

Highland Park 12 Year Old Scotch is a fresh-faced, zesty whisky with a natural golden amber colour direct from the cask. Spicy but mellow, with subtle smoke on the finish, it’s a great introduction to the unique warmth of Orkney heathered peat—and the convivial spirit of their island home.

Nose:
A beautifully balanced aroma of heather honey, light smoke, and dried fruit. Subtle hints of citrus zest, vanilla, and a touch of sherry sweetness mingle with gentle oak and spice. A faint wisp of Orkney peat lingers in the background.

Palate:
Smooth and rounded, delivering a harmony of sweet malt, honeyed heather, and rich dried fruit. Layers of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of dark chocolate add warmth and depth. The Orkney peat smoke is delicate yet persistent, never overpowering but adding a lovely complexity.

Finish:
Long and slightly smoky, with lingering notes of sweet spice, toasted oak, and a gentle maritime salinity. The balance of sweet and smoky elements leaves a satisfying and refined aftertaste.
