Founded in 1798 in Kirkwall, Orkney, Highland Park is one of Scotland's most celebrated single malt whisky distilleries.
Located on an island archipelago off Scotland's northern coast, the distillery has developed a distinctive whisky character shaped by its remote environment, traditional production methods and aromatic local peat.
Unlike the more medicinal smoke found in some heavily peated Scotch whiskies, Highland Park's signature smoke is fragrant and beautifully restrained, often displaying delicate notes of heather, dried herbs and warm wood.
Maturation in carefully selected sherry-seasoned oak casks creates whiskies renowned for their exceptional harmony of honeyed sweetness, rich fruit, warming spice, and gentle smoke.
Highland Park 25 Year Old represents the remarkable transformation that occurs over more than two decades of maturation.
Over 25 years, the whisky develops extraordinary depth and complexity as the spirit interacts with its oak casks.
The influence of sherry-seasoned wood contributes layers of dried fruits, dark chocolate, spice, and rich sweetness, while the distillery's distinctive heather-honey character and aromatic peat smoke remain beautifully integrated.
The result is a whisky that balances maturity and intensity with remarkable elegance, delivering a deeply rewarding drinking experience.
Neat: The finest way to appreciate the whisky's extraordinary complexity, luxurious texture, and long, evolving finish.
With a Few Drops of Water: A small addition of still water can reveal additional layers of fruit, honey and spice.
In a Tulip-Shaped Whisky Glass: Allows the delicate aromas to concentrate and develop gradually.
We recommend letting the whisky sit in the glass for a few minutes before tasting, giving its rich aromas and complex character time to unfold.
Highland Park 25 Year Old is a magnificent after-dinner whisky, particularly enjoyable alongside dark chocolate, roasted hazelnuts, dried figs, aged cheeses and rich caramel desserts.
Its sweetness, spice, and delicate smoke also complement mature Comté, aged Gouda, smoked meats, and beautifully prepared venison.
For an exceptional pairing, enjoy a small measure alongside 70% dark chocolate or a selection of premium roasted nuts.
