Single Malt Whisky, Scotland/Highlands-Orkney

Behind this name lies the Orkney Islands Highland Park distillery, which uses its own peat from the nearby hills of Hobbister Moor to dry the barley still malted on site.

This bottling was distilled in 2013 and aged for 10 years in Pedro Ximenez and Olorosso casks before being bottled at 46%. It has a round, indulgent profile, with aromas of caramel, marron glacé and waxed wood.

The whiskies in the 46% range are bottled from small batches of casks, uncolored and chill-filtered. They are faithful representatives of the distillery style shown on the label and have accessible profiles. An ideal range for discovering Scottish distilleries through Signatory Vintage.
