Highland Park 40 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Decades of maturation give an exceptionally deep, complex nose of honey, dried fruit, sherried sweetness and refined woody spice, the smoke softened and distant with age, finishing extraordinarily long — one of Highland Park's rarest, oldest expressions. Highland Park is distilled on Orkney, Scotland's northernmost island group, using malt smoked over its own Hobbister Moor peat — heather-root rich and lower in salinity than Islay peat, giving a lighter, more delicate smoke with heather honey rather than seaweed brine. The brand draws on Viking heritage, with Norse carvings on its bottles.
