Gordon Motion, continues: “Some of our most outstanding single cask bottlings come from refill casks, as they have often previously held whisky for only a short period of time, so have much to give in subsequent maturation. I chose this cask for The Single Malt Shop due to its interesting and exciting flavour profile to offer something special for their whisky fans.

“As well as the distinctive Highland Park flavours, I also get notes of sweet, toasted oak, vanilla fudge ice cream, roasted almonds and violets with lingering flavours of floral peat smoke, cinnamon bark and lingering spiciness.”

The RSP of the Highland Park single cask exclusively bottles for The Single Malt Shop is €440.00.

Ed Forrest, Managing Director of The Single Malt Shop said: “We are absolutely delighted to be collaborating with Highland Park on this 18-year-old single cask release. As a premium, specialist whisky retailer, we are always looking to work with distilleries to showcase their best expressions and this one complements the Highland Park line up very well indeed. We are very excited by the Highland Park brand now. It is a perfect entry point into whisky with a very well-rounded flavour profile. This single cask bottling is a real delight with dark chocolate, honey and molasses to the fore, balanced by a light, lingering peaty finish.”

Based in Orkney, Scotland, Highland Park has been a working distillery since 1798 and uses local peat in the whisky making process, delivering a balance of aromatic smoky peat and sweet heather honey.
