Highland Park 21
🔬 Whiskey Details
🎨 Flavor Profile
📝 Tasting Notes
Rich sherry influence unfolds with waves of sticky toffee, dark honey, and fig compote, underscored by delicate Orkney peat smoke and aromatic heather. Hints of orange zest, toasted almonds, and subtle Christmas spice create remarkable depth and complexity.
Luxuriously oily mouthfeel delivers sweet sherry notes of raisins and dates, balanced by honeyed smoke, vanilla custard, and warm baking spices. The signature Highland Park smoke remains elegant and integrated, never overpowering the rich fruit and malt character.
Long, warming finish with lingering smoky sweetness, dried fruit, and gentle spice that evolves into subtle oak tannins and a whisper of sea salt.
🥃 How to Enjoy
Pour at room temp in a Glencairn. Let it breathe 2–3 minutes before nosing — this unlocks the full aromatic profile.
A few drops cut through cask-strength alcohol and release esters. Start with one drop and taste as you go.
Fine for lighter, fruitier expressions. Cold can mute the complexity in heavily peated or well-aged malts.
