All the way from the Orkney’s, Highland Park is rich
and smoky.
Made from barley malted over burning peat, this Highland
malt has a smoky sweetness and a glowing amber colour. Smoothly opulent and
tingling with spices and hints of orange peel through to a powerful finish.
Highland Park 12 Year Old remains one of the gold standard malts for
other distillery bottlings to aspire to. With a delicious sweetness
(heather-honey is their preferred description) and a warming, silky mouthfeel,
this is a whisky that never lets you down.

I love it - so very smooth !
