Highland Park 18
Discover the epitome of excellence with Highland Park's 18 Year Old, celebrated as the 'Best Spirit in the World' by F Paul Pacult, an esteemed American whisky expert (Spirit Journal). This distinguished single malt has garnered accolades, including Gold and Ultimate Recommendation in the 2021 International Spirits Challenge.
A tribute to Highland Park's 5 keystones of production, the 18 Year Old is matured in a high proportion of first-fill sherry seasoned European and American oak casks. Renowned for its rich, complex, and supremely delicious profile, this single malt underwent a redesign in 2017, inspired by wood carvings from Urnes Stave Church and adorned with the sub-name "Viking Pride." Elevate your whisky experience with the award-winning Highland Park 18 Year Old, a true testament to craftsmanship and flavour mastery.
The nose reveals a profusion of ripe floral notes and fresh blossom, intertwined with the allure of a delectable fruit salad. Honeyed exotic fruits with a subtle hint of botrytis add complexity to the olfactory experience. The palate unfolds with a creamy and full-bodied texture, offering luscious fruit conserves and a subtle espresso undertone. Coupled with sophisticated medley of ripe cherries dusted with bittersweet cocoa, freshly harvested honeycomb and candied orange peel. There’s a whisper of Orkney’s salty seaspray in the aromatic peat smoke.
Cinnamon and allspice contribute to a delightful creaminess, while notes of toffee and thick black forest honey entice the palate, complemented by a touch of citrus. The finish is a lingering symphony of sweetness, well sugared with a herbal edge that extends the sensory journey.
