Highland Park 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 70cl
Highland Park 18 Year Old Viking Pride is widely regarded as one of the finest single malts in the world — celebrated by critics for its depth and balance. Aged for at least 18 years in a combination of first-fill American ex-bourbon and Spanish ex-sherry casks at the historic Highland Park distillery in Kirkwall, Orkney. Bottled at 43% ABV.
Founded in 1798. The 18 Year Old has been a benchmark expression in Highland Park's aged range for decades.
A definitive sipping Island malt — neat in a copita.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Opulent and aromatic — heather honey, gentle peat smoke, caramelised dried fruit, vanilla, dark caramel, gentle baking spice, leather, and warm toasted oak — luxurious and beautifully matured.
PALATE
Velvety and rich — caramelised honey, gentle smoke, dried fruit, vanilla cream, dark toffee, dried apricot, gentle leather, and integrated multi-cask oak — silky, layered, and harmoniously balanced.
FINISH
Exceptionally long — lingering honey, gentle smoke, dried fruit, vanilla, dark caramel, and a slow warming spice depth fading gracefully — refined, mature, and beautifully composed.
