Highland Park – 21 Year Old November 2019 Release (75cl, 46%)

This is the November 2019 Release of Highland Park 21 Year Old, a single malt whisky in a 750ml bottle, bottled at 46%. It is a vatting of three kinds of cask: nine first-fill European sherry seasoned oak hogsheads, eight ex-bourbon hogsheads and nine refill hogsheads. The sherry casks add warm spice and rich dried fruit, the ex-bourbon hogsheads bring sweeter exotic fruit, and the refill casks soften the whole. The notes include freshly cut pineapple, ripe mango, juicy pears, sun-dried sultanas, dried exotic fruit, spice market aromas and curls of aromatic peat smoke.
