Tasting Profile
Nose: Lively and layered. Sweet vanilla, fresh pineapple, heather honey, and a breeze of coastal smoke. There’s a vibrancy here, like the air after a spring rain on the Orkney cliffs.
Palate: Smooth and refined. Notes of red apple, citrus peel, nutmeg, and crème brûlée roll through a silky texture with a whisper of peat smoke and toasted oak.
Finish: Clean, warming, and gently smoky. Fades with a memory of spiced orange, dried fruits, and soft embers.

Interesting Fact
Highland Park leans heavily into its Viking roots, as Orkney was once under Norse rule. Leif Eriksson, one of the first Europeans to reach North America, is the perfect namesake for a whisky that bridges tradition and exploration.

Serving Suggestions
Best neat or with a small splash of water to brighten the citrus and spice. Excellent with smoked salmon, creamy cheeses, or simply on its own in a heavy tumbler on a cold night.
