Highland Park 40 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 70cl
Highland Park 40 Year Old is a strictly limited museum-grade Island single malt matured for at least 40 years in a combination of American ex-bourbon and Spanish ex-sherry casks at the historic Highland Park distillery in Kirkwall, Orkney. Four decades of patient maturation produces an extraordinarily concentrated, deeply layered single malt — among the rarest publicly available aged Highland Park expressions.
Founded in 1798. Strictly limited and individually numbered.may vary slightly by release.
A definitive museum-grade collector's expression — for the most serious Island enthusiasts.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Profoundly aromatic — heather honey, gentle peat smoke, caramelised dried fruit, antique leather, dark chocolate, vanilla, polished oak, and warm baking spice — extraordinarily mature and beautifully composed.
PALATE
Velvety and concentrated — caramelised honey, gentle smoke, dried fig, vanilla cream, sherried oak, leather, dark cocoa, espresso, and warm spice — full-bodied with the depth that only four decades can deliver.
FINISH
Exceptionally long — lingering honey, dried fruit, dark caramel, sherried oak, gentle leather, and a slow warming spice depth fading gracefully — sophisticated, contemplative, and unforgettable.
