Highland Park 25 years old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
With a higher abv to preserve some of the highly complex notes, our 25 year old is matured using a very high proportion of first fill sherry casks, which not only impart a wonderfully rich, nutty spiciness but also an intensely dark and full bodied flavour profile: dried fruits, caramel, dark chocolate, golden toffee and slightly drier floral smoke all vie for your attention. The 25 years spent in oak have not diminished its personality and this whisky is also surprisingly sweet and vibrant, alongside its astonishing depth.

Highland Park 30 years old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
30 years ago, our master distiller decided to lay down the casks that would go on to become the heart of this exceptional whisky and over these three decades, the whisky maturing inside them has developed an outstanding balance, with a seductive sweetness and extremely delicate smoke. Treating this whisky with respect will reward you with breath-taking results: characteristic fudge sweetness comes together with complex aromatic spices and dark chocolate orange. It has a drying finish, leaving a gentle smoky flavour and an incredibly lengthy finish.
