Highland Park The Dark 17 Year Old

Highland Park’s 17-year-old ‘The Dark’ is a richly evocative single malt born from the rugged Orkney Islands, where Viking heritage meets heather-clad hills. Matured predominantly in European oak sherry casks, this whisky unveils a captivating depth of flavour – think dark fruits, roasted coffee, and a subtle hint of heather honey. A warming spice dances on the palate, leading to a long, satisfying finish with notes of dark chocolate and a gentle smokiness. It’s a complex and rewarding dram, reflecting the unique character of its island home and careful maturation.
