On the nose, it typically opens with aromas of orchard fruit, citrus peel, vanilla, and warm oak, followed by Highland Park’s characteristic floral smoke and a hint of maritime salinity.\n\nThe palate is rich and rounded, with notes of raisins, dark chocolate, dried figs, cinnamon, and malty sweetness, balanced by earthy peat and a light coastal edge. The finish is long, warming, and gently smoky, with excellent aging depth and plenty of nuance from its 21 years in cask.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHighland Park is made in Kirkwall on the Orkney Islands, where the cool maritime climate and slow maturation help shape its distinctive profile.
