Highland Park Cask Strength Release No. 4 Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a bold and unfiltered expression, bottled straight from the cask at an intense 64.3% ABV. This Orkney single malt showcases the distillery’s signature balance of sweet sherry influence and gentle peat smoke. Matured in a combination of first-fill sherry-seasoned European oak, first-fill sherry-seasoned American oak, refill casks, ex-bourbon casks, and, for the first time, ex-port casks, this whisky offers remarkable depth and complexity. The nose bursts with aromas of toasted coconut, crushed lemons, and cedarwood, layered with floral peat smoke and hints of Turkish Delight. On the palate, flavors of pink grapefruit, rose water, and toasted oak unfold, balanced by warming spice and earthy peat. The finish is long and rewarding, with lingering notes of sun-baked spices, liquorice, and aromatic peat smoke. A powerful and dynamic whisky for those who appreciate full-bodied single malts.
